The spot dollar closed down 0.43% at R$5.5619 in Brazil on November 11 as investors trimmed risk premiums on expected fiscal adjustment, with the government signaling spending cuts of up to R$80 billion. The real was the strongest of 33 liquid currencies while the DXY rose 0.65% abroad.
A stronger real reduces the local-currency cost of imported inputs and lowers the dollar value of Brazilian soymeal and corn exports, which can soften Brazilian export offers. Market moves in the real feed directly into Brazilian feed ingredient pricing.
