In the domestic scenario, investors were attentive to the vote on the Transition PEC in the Senate Constitution and Justice Committee.

In the foreign market, the dollar had a day of decline across the planet, mainly in emerging countries, with the prospects of reopening the Chinese economy after the easing of restrictions against covid-19. Furthermore, a technical adjustment has taken place after the last few days’ highs, with some big investors selling the greenback to pocket recent gains.
