Dollar weakens against the real after US inflation data

The Brazilian real strengthened as the dollar closed lower in Brazil on Friday after the US PCE inflation index for August came in line with market expectations. The spot dollar fell 0.49% to R$5.3386, and the index rose 2.7% year over year.

WHY IT MATTERS

A firmer real makes Brazilian commodity exports priced in dollars less competitive in local terms and can encourage Brazilian farmers to sell more slowly, with mild implications for soymeal and corn export pricing.
