Briefings
Brazilian fuel prices are projected to drop significantly in the coming week, but this relief is expected to be weakened by rising international crude prices and the impact of the VAT. Brent crude reached a record high of $117 per barrel, marking the highest level since April. The ACP initially estimated an eight-cent drop per liter, though this figure may be overstated due to external market factors.
Key points
- The ACP initially estimated a fuel price drop of eight cents per liter, but this relief is expected to be attenuated by rising international crude prices and the impact of the VAT.
- Brent crude reached a record high of $117 per barrel, marking the highest level since April.
