A nafta petroquímica deverá ultrapassar em fevereiro os atuais R$ 1.140 (US$ 500) fixados pela Petrobras. Por causa desse movimento de alta do insumo, as grandes fabricantes de resinas nacionais podem iniciar um processo de reajuste nos preços.

O dólar comercial fechou estável ontem, após registrar queda forte ao longo de todo o dia. A desvalorização acentuada desacelerou após o leilão de compra do Banco Central (BC). Nas últimas ofertas do dia, a moeda recuou 0,04%, para R$ 2,216.

A Organização Mundial do Comércio (OMC) adiou pela terceira vez a decisão sobre se a União Européia pode ou não vetar a importação de produtos transgênicos. A sentença confidencial, que deveria sair hoje, foi mais uma vez postergada pelos juízes da organização.

Nos últimos meses, vai ficando cada vez mais claro que a economia americana está passando por um período de desaquecimento, indo de uma taxa de crescimento de certa de 5,5% no primeiro trimestre para algo em torno de 2,5% na projeção do segundo semestre.

O único setor dentro da economia americana que mostra uma queda mais forte é o de imóveis, que foi um dos principais responsáveis pelo crescimento acelerado dos últimos anos e vem sendo um dos determinantes da desaceleração dos últimos meses. No entanto, até agora não foi observado um impacto mais claro sobre o restante da economia que justificasse uma maior preocupação com um quadro de queda mais forte do crescimento.

In February naphtha is expected to exceed the current R$ 1,140 ($ 500) set by Petrobras. Because this upward movement in raw material, the major national resin manufacturers can initiate a price adjustment process.

The dollar closed stable yesterday, after recording a sharp drop during the day. The sharp depreciation slowed after the Central Bank (CB) auction to purchase. In the last transaction of the day, the currency fell 0.04% to R$ 2.216.

For a third time the World Trade Organization (WTO) has postponed the decision, whether the European Union can or cannot veto the importation of transgenic products. The confidential ruling, which was to be released today, was once again postponed by the organization’s judges.

In the recent months, it has become increasingly clear that the U.S. economy is undergoing a cooling down period, ranging from a growth rate of about 5.5% in the first quarter to around 2.5% in the second semester projection.

The only sector in the U.S. economy that shows a stronger decline is real estate, which was a major contributor to the rapid growth in recent years and has been one of the causes of the slowdown in recent months. However, until now the largest impact has not been observed by the rest of the economy which would justify a greater concern with an outline for a stronger decline in growth.
