(MENAFN- The Rio Times) The Brazilian real weakened on November 29, with the dollar reaching a record closing high of R$ 6.001, up 0.19%.



The dollar gained 3.21% over the week, though it retreated from an intraday peak of R$ 6.11 following comments from congressional leaders about fiscal policy.



Chamber President Arthur Lira's commitment to maintaining fiscal discipline helped ease tensions. His statement supported the government's proposed spending cuts and tax reforms.



The Finance announced measures targeting R$70 ($12) billion in savings over two years. The package includes income tax changes and aims to generate R$327 billion by 2030.



Brazil's currency had faced pressure as one of the world's worst performers against the dollar in 2024. The real's decline reflected broader concerns about the country's economic management.







Senate President Rodrigo Pacheco offered measured support for fiscal reforms while calling for deeper analysis. His careful approach helped stabilize market reactions to the government's proposals.



Trading showed high volatility as investors processed both the fiscal package details and political responses. Market analysts noted that leadership statements helped offset initial negative reactions.



The broader economic context involves rising inflation and growing public debt levels. These challenges have pushed officials to seek solutions while maintaining market confidence.



Global factors also influenced currency movements, including anticipated US policy changes. Brazil 's position as an emerging market makes it sensitive to international economic shifts.



The real's stabilization suggests markets found some reassurance in political leaders' responses. However, uncertainty remains about the implementation and effectiveness of the proposed reforms.
