The Tightest Runoff Poll Yet Just Handed the Dollar a Boost: What Brazil's Election Means for Your Money

Protesters burn papers imitating US dollar bills during a protest in defense of national sovereignty after trade tariffs and sanctions imposed by the US government on Brazil, near the US embassy in Brasilia, Brazil, on August 1, 2025. Trump's Brazil tariff is among the highest imposed on US trading partners, and unlike with other countries, the measures have been framed in openly political terms, sweeping aside centuries-old trade ties and a surplus that Brasilia put at $284 million last year.
