The B3, the main indicator of the Bovespa, falls after Brazilian Economy Minister Paulo Guedes threatens to resign

Today, May 24, 2019, the Bovespa Index had its third consecutive day of low. B3's main share index rose more than 1% in the morning, but lost its force in the afternoon and closed 0.30% lower at 93,627.80 points.

This fall occurred after VEJA magazine published an exclusive interview in which the Economy Minister, Paulo Guedes, said he would resign if reform proposal becomes just a "little Pension Reform".

In the week, however, the Brazilian stock market was up 4.04%.

The dollar, on the other hand, closed today at R$ 4.0152, the lowest price in 10 days. The Brazilian Real was the emerging currency that strengthened the most on Friday in relation to the US currency.
