# What displeased the market in the Copom minutes on interest rates, and what does it have to do with the dollar’s rise?

> Brazil’s central bank kept the Selic rate at 13.75% after five consecutive cuts and said worsening inflation expectations warrant keeping rates high for longer, without specifying when cuts might resume. The minutes and US inflation data contributed to a 1.48% rise in the dollar to R$5.58, its highest level since July 2025.
