The real weakened to around 5.60 per dollar on November 10 as hotter US inflation reinforced expectations of further Federal Reserve rate increases and a narrower US-Brazil interest-rate differential. Domestic fiscal uncertainty and the Brazilian central bank’s hawkish minutes also weighed on the currency; the central bank held its Selic rate at 13.75%.
A weaker real raises Brazilian buyers’ local-currency costs for imported feed and inputs. Reduced carry-trade support and ongoing fiscal uncertainty could prolong that cost pressure.
