# Dollar-Won May Look Lower After US Midterms - 'Strong Support at 1,320 Won' < Bonds/Forex < Article - Yonhap Infomax

> Analysts at Yonhap Infomax say expectations are growing that reduced uncertainty after the US midterm elections and stable interest rates could push the dollar-won exchange rate lower. They flag AI regulation concerns and Middle East instability as risks that could add volatility, with strong support expected near 1,320 won. DB Securities and Shinhan Investment also expect a Democratic congressional win to weaken fiscal expansion momentum.

## Why it matters

A weaker dollar against the won lowers the local-currency cost of imported feed grains and meal, which can ease landed costs for Korean feed buyers. The effect depends on whether risk sentiment improves after the election.
