The US dollar closed Friday at R$5.65 against the real, its highest level of the year, after edging higher. The Ibovespa gained 0.77% to 172.6 thousand points, helped by Petrobras shares as Brent traded near $96.
A weaker real raises the local-currency cost of imported feed inputs and makes Brazilian soybean meal and corn exports more competitive, supporting Brazilian export prices.
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.
