Brazil's real recovers

Updated 17 Oct, 2019

Brazil's real rose 0.2% and the Mexican peso gained 0.1%, while most other regional currencies fell against a steady dollar.

Technicals show that Mexico's peso is on the cusp of a much bigger rally. Wall Street fell and stock markets in Brazil and Chile followed. Those in Colombia and Mexico gained.

The Colombian peso slipped 0.2%. Morgan Stanley analysts are watching for a ruling this week by Colombia's constitutional court on the legality of a financing law that was approved late year.
