ING expects the Brazilian real to outperform as the Selic rate, at 13.75%, starts an easing cycle with roughly 400bp of cuts over the next year. The outlook also cites improving reform prospects and lower inflation, and a Mexican peso section is included.
Expected easing and a firmer real can shift Brazilian export competitiveness and origin pricing for soy and corn, a factor for feed buyers tracking Brazilian supply.
After 213 past bearish macro events, Brazilian Real (BRL per USD) moved a median -0.2% over 5 sessions (46% higher; middle half -1.5% to +0.9%), and +0.2% over 20.
