EVOLUTION OF THE DOLLAR
After the first round of the presidential elections, in April 2021, the dollar showed a steady rise until October, when it came to cost S/ 4.14. Then, following the change of the chairman of the council of ministers, Guido Bellido, the US currency fell to 3.92, but again began a slight rise until the beginning of December, when the first vacancy motion against President Pedro Castillo was dismissed.
Since then, the dollar has been falling day after day to reach S/3.70 on March 10. However, during the weeks that Pedro Castillo's presidential vacancy in Congress was discussed again, it had a slight increase (S/3.79) until this was archived. This latest decline in the US currency also coincides with the Peruvian national football team's qualification for the repechage.
