On a day of recovery in the financial market, the dollar approached R$5.20 and eliminated part of the highs of recent days. The stock market had a moderate gain and returned to 183 thousand points.
The commercial dollar ended this Friday (6) sold at R$ 5.22, with a decrease of R$ 0.034 (-0.64%).
The price operated lower throughout the session, reaching R$5.20 at around 2:45 pm, but reduced the pace of decline with investors taking advantage of the low price to buy currency.
With this Friday’s fall, the dollar fell 0.65% in the week. In 2026, the currency accumulates a drop of 4.9%.
Ibovespa
The stock market had another day of recovery. After the heavy fall on Wednesday (4), the Ibovespa index, from B3, rose for the second time in a row and reached 182,950 points, an increase of 0.45%.
The stock exchange alternated highs and lows during the session, but confirmed the upward trend towards the end of trading. During the week, the Ibovespa rose 0.87%.
External factors
Without major news on the domestic scene, the financial market was dominated by external factors. The recovery of American stock markets, which rose this Friday after several consecutive falls, benefited the global market.
In recent days, shares of technology companies have plummeted due to fears of a bubble bursting in the artificial intelligence sector. However, part of the fall was reversed this Friday, because the shares became cheap, attracting the interest of buyers.
