Fuel Price Change Affects Not Only Directly But Also Indirectly
Obviously, the change in fuel prices influences not only directly but also indirectly when we talk about the overall economy of the country. The three main factors are the federal tax cuts, Goods and Services Tax (ICMS) and the determination of a cap on taxes related to the product at up to 18%.
Despite these factors, oil prices are still quite unstable, while diesel has maintained its prices and shows no signs of change for now. The main issue with diesel is the scarcity that has been emerging in the market over the months, as national consumption has seen a considerable increase.
