Dollar closes the week at R$5.65, highest since early November

The Central Bank's PTAX dollar rate closed Friday, November 13, at R$5.6518, its highest level since early November. The dollar moved from R$5.51 on Monday to R$5.6143 on Thursday before closing the week at the period's high.

WHY IT MATTERS

A stronger dollar against the real raises the cost of imported inputs and makes Brazilian exports cheaper in dollar terms, which can support Brazilian soybean meal and other commodity export competitiveness while raising feed import costs for Brazilian buyers.
