Brazil's finance minister and central bank governor said at Davos that the country is not concerned about a strong dollar, citing economic recovery and higher commodity prices. The central bank said it has entered a new phase of 75-basis-point rate cuts per meeting, subject to revision.
Rate cuts tend to weaken the real, and strong commodity prices support Brazil's export earnings, shaping the currency outlook for Brazilian exporters of soy and corn. Lower Brazilian rates and a weaker real would favor Brazilian export competitiveness.
