21 maj 2020

The pair will bounce back from an uptrend channel support line, sending the pair higher towards its all-time high. The largest economy in South and North America are facing challenges with the coronavirus pandemic. Brazil placed 3rd while the US has the largest COVID-19 cases and deaths around the world. The fear of contamination had forced their government to temporarily shut businesses or reduced their working capacities. In the US, the shutdown caused its economy to shrink by -4.8%, the biggest since the Great Recession in 2008. Meanwhile, Brazil is expected to plunge by 6% in Q1. Between the two (2) countries, the US will thrive the most. US President Donald Trump has now the backing of both the Republicans and Democrats as officials try to save the US economy from collapsing. On the other hand, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro is on the lookout for the country’s third health secretary since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic.
