If you buy foreign stocks or bonds or other financial interests, you are exposed to CURRENCY fluctuations. .
and unless you BUY at the top of the US DOLLAR strength, and you SELL at the bottom of the US DOLLAR weakness, you are generally going to lose with an 8% currency cost for conversion. .

good luck
