The recent high dollar in Brazil has been one of the most talked about topics not only in Brazil, but also in the international press. Newspapers such as El País, BBC News, Deutsche Welle, Financial Times, The Wall Street Journal e Reuters point out the causes and consequences of this scenario that directly impacts the Brazilian economy and global investment relations.
What's happening to the real?

Among the main reasons are the market's distrust in the government's fiscal management and persistent inflation. In addition, the interventions of the Central Bank of Brazil were not enough to contain the devaluation.
In the same vein, the BBC News pointed out that the high dollar makes imported products more expensive, puts pressure on inflation and affects investments. In addition, political and economic instability contribute to an environment of uncertainty.
