# Dollar continues under 'midterms' effect and falls to 965 pesos

> The dollar fell 4.3 pesos in early trading in Chile, quoted near 965.6 to 965.9. The drop followed Democratic gains in the US midterm elections, which reduced political uncertainty, and a decline in oil prices on hopes of an end to the Iran war.

## Why it matters

A weaker dollar and lower oil prices reduce inflation pressure and can lift dollar-denominated commodity prices. For feed buyers, the effect is modest, but a softer dollar generally supports import affordability.
