Dollar Records Greatest Daily Appreciation Since Early November
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – Despite the easing of tensions in the international financial market, the dollar recorded its highest daily rise in two months and the stock market dropped again in Brazil.
The commercial dollar closed Thursday, January 9th, at R$4.086, with an appreciation of 0.85 percent (R$0.035). In percentage values, this was the highest rise in a day since November 8th, when the currency appreciated 1.83 percent.
In the stock market, the B3 Ibovespa index closed at 115,946 points, a 0.26 percent drop. In decline for the fourth consecutive session, the indicator closed below 116,000 points for the first time in the year.
The performance of the financial market in Brazil contrasted with that of foreign markets. The announcement by the Canadian government and US intelligence officials that an Iranian missile struck the Ukrainian plane that crashed shortly after take-off in Tehran did not change the indicators. By late afternoon, the price of a barrel of Brent crude oil was at US$65.43, virtually stable compared to Wednesday, January 8th.
On international exchanges, the day was again marked by tranquility. The main European stock markets closed higher: 1.31 percent in Frankfurt, 0.31 percent in London and 0.19 percent in Paris. In the United States, the Dow Jones index in New York was up 0.68 percent near the end of trading.
