Hello,
I'm reblancing my share portfolio in DeGiro. One of the stocks that I would like to buy Total Energies which is a french company traded in a few European exchanges, shows "USD" as the reporting currency in the company profile in Degiro. All the other EU stocks that I own already as well as the ones that I'm about to buy show as "Euro" as the reporting currency. What's the implications of this ? Does it mean that the transactions are converted to USD from Euro when I buy it and then back from USD to Euros when sold ? Is there a currency overhead/risk with the reporting currency being in $$$ intead of €€€ . I wonder why a French company based in France traded in europe is reporting in USD ?
Thanks/Henning
