# Dollar rises sharply as Fed and Copom signals coincide with US inflation data

> The dollar strengthened after US inflation came in above expectations and Federal Reserve official Christopher Waller made cautious comments on interest rates. The real was also pressured by domestic policy uncertainty, a dovish reading of the Copom minutes, and falling oil prices; the dollar reached R$5.5725 during the morning.

## Why it matters

The weaker real raises the local cost of imported feed inputs, while falling crude prices reduce support for Brazil’s terms of trade and currency. The combination may sustain pressure on the real and increase import costs.
