Brazilian markets fell sharply on March 18, 2020, and the real slid almost 5% to as low as 5.2490 per dollar. Central bank foreign exchange and bond interventions did not stop the sell-off, and the currency's 2020 losses approached 25%.
A weaker real makes Brazilian exports cheaper in dollar terms, which can pressure dollar prices for Brazilian soy and corn and encourage farmers to sell more. The currency move is therefore bearish for those commodities.
