    This article establishes the global exponential stability of the monostable traveling wave with the minimal speed for the nonlocal dispersal equation \[ u_t=J\ast u-u+f(u), \] where the nonlinearity \(f\) is degenerate in the sense that \(f'(0)=0\). To prove the result, the author carefully constructs a family of upper and lower solutions, then employs the squeezing technique, which was developed by \textit{X. Chen }[Adv. Differ. Equ. 2, No. 1, 125--160 (1997; Zbl 1023.35513)] for bistable waves and refined in several studies on monostable waves, to obtain the global stability up to the phase shift.
