On this day of tensions in the international financial market, the US currency fell and the stock market remained stable. The commercial dollar ended Thursday (27) and sold at R $ 3,894, down 0.7%. The Ibovespa index of the São Paulo stock exchange closed the day with a slight appreciation of 0.07% to 85,194.
Markets in Brazil were influenced by turbulence in the United States. The disclosure that the US consumer confidence index reached its lowest level in four months in November led to the fall of major stock indexes in the United States. Yesterday (26), stocks of US companies had recorded significant gains after their fall on Christmas Eve.
There was little day on the Brazilian financial market due to the closeness of the holiday season. Today, the Central Bank has sold $ 1 billion worth of international reserves by pledging to buy that money back later. The monetary authority also announced that it would fully return the foreign exchange contracts from the swap (sale of futures dollars) in January. These interventions are aimed at ensuring the rise of the US currency.
