  Nevertheless, you can expect to see the impact of the strong dollar in earnings reports from many Dow components for the second quarter starting next month. McDonald's (NYSE: MCD  ) and Procter & Gamble (NYSE: PG  ) have both shown a lot of sensitivity to currency fluctuations in the past. McDonald's has increasingly relied on its global business reach, getting more than two-thirds of its revenue outside U.S. borders. For its part, P&G gets 65% of its sales from its international division, and earlier this year it took a hit when Venezuela devalued its currency, showing how a rising dollar can hurt the consumer giant.
