Brazil's central bank stepped into the market to support the real after USD/BRL reached an all-time high. The dollar stayed broadly firm on mixed sentiment, and ING expects the Brazilian central bank to need further action to stabilise the currency.
Trade-deal optimism between the US and China was noted but had not weakened the dollar.
Intervention to defend the real slows the currency's slide, which helps limit the rise in Brazil's import costs for feed ingredients and fuel. Continued dollar strength would still keep pressure on Brazilian export competitiveness.
Setelah 213 peristiwa makro bearish sebelumnya, Real Brasil (BRL per USD) bergerak median -0,2% selama 5 sesi (46% lebih tinggi; separuh tengah -1,5% sampai +0,9%), dan +0,2% selama 20 sesi.
