# EMERGING MARKETS-Latam FX falls as dollar gains on inflation data; rouble steadies - Supply Chain Council of European Union | Scceu.org

> Most Latin American currencies fell against a firmer dollar on March 10 after US consumer prices surged in February, raising bets on a Federal Reserve rate hike in March. The Brazilian real, Colombian peso and Mexican peso lost between 0.1% and 2%, while copper-linked Chilean and Peruvian currencies gained. Petrobras also said it would raise fuel prices.

## Why it matters

A stronger dollar and rate-hike expectations make dollar-priced feed imports more expensive for Latin American buyers, and higher fuel costs add to inflation pressure on feed and freight.
