A Reuters poll expects emerging market currencies to recover ground in 2024 as the dollar weakens. The Brazilian real and Mexican peso have gained about 8% and 11% respectively this year, and some central banks have started cutting rates.
The peso is forecast to lose about 4.5% and the real just over 2% over the next 12 months.
A forecast weaker real over the next year would make Brazilian export origin cheaper in dollar terms, supporting Brazilian soy and corn competitiveness against US supply.
