Latin American currencies rose on Monday led by Brazil's real, which jumped nearly 1.5% against the dollar and is up 12.6% year to date. The gains come as surging commodity and oil prices, tied to sanctions on Russia over the war in Ukraine, support the region's currencies.
A firmer real alongside high commodity prices tends to make Brazilian grain and oilseed exports pricier in dollar terms, while the Russia-Ukraine conflict and sanctions keep global feed and energy prices elevated.
Setelah 244 peristiwa bearish dari jenis apa pun sebelumnya, Real Brasil (BRL per USD) bergerak median -0,4% selama 5 sesi (43% lebih tinggi; separuh tengah -1,7% sampai +0,9%), dan +0,1% selama 20 sesi.
Setelah 656 peristiwa geopolitik bullish sebelumnya, Minyak Mentah (Brent) bergerak median +1,9% selama 5 sesi (63% lebih tinggi; separuh tengah -2,7% sampai +6,6%), dan +0,7% selama 20 sesi.

Higher commodity and oil prices after Russia sanctions boosted Brazil's terms of trade and Latam FX sentiment, with the real jumping about 1.5% on March 21 and contributing to the week's decline in BRL per USD.
