The absolute purchasing power parity predicts that price levels will be the same across countries. The Big-Mac index was invented by The Economist in 1986 as a lighthearted guide to whether currencies are at their \"correct\" level. It is based on the relative purchasing-power parity. Carry trade is a strategy of going short (betting the foreign exchange value will fall) in a high- interest rate currency such as the Mexican Peso, while simultaneously going long (betting the foreign exchange value will rise) in a low-interest rate currency such as the Japanese yen.
