Brazilian exports on the rise. In the first six months of the year, the trade balance accumulates a surplus of US$ 34.240 billion. An excellent brand after the difficult period during the pandemic. This represents 8.2% less than in January and June last year. The balance is the second best in history for the period, second only to 2021, when the surplus had closed the first half at US$ 37 billion in that interval.
The dollar, which rose 0.04% at the intraday maximum, at 5.1359 reais, ended up closing down 2.07%, at 5.0278 reais on sale. The percentage pullback is the strongest for a close of session since May 17 (-2.14%).
