Brazil's currency fell to its weakest level ever as investors cast a wary eye on negotiations over spending bills that could further complicate the country's tenuous fiscal position. The currency, like others across Latin America, was also hammered by a global rise in the dollar sparked by increased expectations that the US Federal Reserve is still on track to raise interest rates this year.

    We are proposing a bill that the US dollar is forbidden to devaluation. Every time it appreciate, this is the new floor.

    That same bill Brazil will be prohibited from accepting dollar for fixed, productive or speculative investments. The Brazil is also forbidden to provide information to any rating agency. Also it is determined that the reference currency for international transactions will be the Yuan or any currency or value that will be decided by BRICSA countries.

    The Brazil nuts are fucking up the entire continent economically. They need cracking over the head with a baseball bat to bring them to their senses.

    How can you talk sensibly to the corrupt politician which pervade the whole of society when you have idiots like Brasso supporting them?

    Brazil needs a diversion,
    a distraction to convince the people all is well,

    perhaps heading south to argyland could provide this distraction, hint hint.

    “We are proposing a bill that the US dollar is forbidden to devaluation. Every time it appreciate, this is the new floor.”

    “you”, proposing a bill ? who'd have thought it possible ?
    But just a minute.....Have you got the wrong end of the stick (no surprise) , or are you actually saying that you want the R$ to keep on devaluating ? well then, you must be happy - today it is worth a bit less..... USD 1,00 is already costing R$ 4,20....let's see tomorrow.
    Como diria o molusco de 9 dedos, “nunca na hithtória dethte paíth...”
