Conventional wisdom, which isn't always so wise tells us that be that exports will go down because the price of goods from the U.S. rise against foreign currencies.
That's true, but the cost of producing goods in the U.S should go down, especially goods that are not labor intense. The cost of energy in the U.S. should go down, along with such commodes as iron ore, aluminum, rare earth materials ext. It's not so cut and dry as we who have rings at the end of our noses are told to believe that we would lose out on exports, especially if the producers of the goods cut the price of their goods to reflect the savings of the lower prices of natural resources.
If unemployment goes up in foreign countries then one can expect exports to go down, but that's another story.
