The dollar closed Friday at R$5.6567, up 0.11% on the day and more than 2.63% for the week. The market digested Brazil's fiscal package for the coming year and a US consumer price reading above analyst expectations.
A stronger dollar against the real raises the local-currency cost of imported feed ingredients and fertilizer for Brazilian buyers, while supporting Brazilian export competitiveness.
After 301 past bullish macro events, Brazilian Real (BRL per USD) moved a median +0.4% over 5 sessions (57% higher; middle half -1.2% to +1.7%), and +1.0% over 20.
