Result of active fiscal policy : there may be stimulation of the economy in the short run, but there will be harmful effects to the economy in the long run.

Explanation:

Active fiscal policy implies that Congress and the President are actively attempting to shift the trajectory of the economy by adjustments in taxes and/or government expenditure.

In an open market, monetary policy often influences the rate of exchange and trade balance.

Moreover, in the long term, the development of international debt, which stems from large government expenditures, can lead investors to mistrust US assets which may trigger the exchange rate to fall.
