# Dollar rises to R$5.586 amid Copom minutes and U.S. inflation

> The dollar gained 1.48% to close at R$5.586, its highest level since July 2025, as Brazil’s Copom minutes sounded less hawkish than expected and domestic inflation expectations deteriorated. U.S. October consumer inflation also exceeded forecasts, adding to global dollar strength; the exchange rate briefly topped R$5.61.

## Why it matters

A stronger dollar and weaker real raise the cost of imported feed ingredients and inputs in Brazil, while potentially supporting export competitiveness. Higher U.S. inflation may also keep interest rates elevated and support the dollar.
