# Dollar falls despite fiscal adjustment announcement considered ‘insufficient’

> The dollar was down about 0.50% against the real late in the morning, while the DXY dollar index rose 0.47%. Brazil’s government was preparing a 2027 fiscal adjustment targeting spending reductions of 0.5% of GDP, or roughly 70–80 billion reais, though market participants viewed the measures as insufficient to stabilize public debt.

## Why it matters

The weaker dollar against the real can ease Brazilian import costs, while continued fiscal concerns leave the currency vulnerable to renewed pressure. Higher U.S. rate expectations and a rising DXY also affect global currency conditions.
