The price of the dollar has registered a sustained rise in the country. This generates important economic consequences, especially affecting the most vulnerable sectors of the population.
The situation that triggered the alert occurred on Wednesday of the previous week. It happened during the morning of July 6, when the US currency reached a historic price of $1,000.
It was a foretaste of what would happen next, punctually for most of the next few days. The price of the US currency once more exceeded the $1,000 barrier repeatedly.
What is the price of the dollar today July 19 and how did it close the day?
This Tuesday, and according to information from the Central Bank (BC), activity in the country begins with an observed price of the dollar amounting to $940.90. Due to the instability in the value of the US currency, however, the price is likely to experience variations in today’s trading session.
The decline in the value of the currency, according to experts, has clear reasons. The announcement of foreign exchange intervention by the Central Bank with the injection of dollars into the national market, the rise in the price of copper and also the weakening of the greenback at the international level.
