What determines whether a country runs a surplus or a deficit? The factors are interrelated. As a country’s currency appreciates, its goods become more expensive abroad and foreign goods become cheaper at home, incentivizing more imports and fewer exports, and thus pushing the current account toward deficit. Depreciation has the opposite effect.
