Brazil loses net $1.14 bln in forex markets Thurs

Reuters, Thursday, January 14, 1999 at 16:53

SAO PAULO, Jan 14 (Reuters) - Brazil's net dollar outflows
on Thursday reached $1.14 billion by 2120 GMT as fallout from
the nation's currency devaluation continued, traders said.
The figure, which was not seen changing much as remaining
transactions were calculated, surpassed earlier market
expectation of a $1 billion ceiling on Thursday's outflows,
they said.
The Central Bank implemented on Wednesday a new, wider
trading band and Brazil's currency quickly tumbled 8 percent
against the dollar.
For the past two days, the Central Bank has been forced to
sell dollars to keep the real within the new trading band set
at between 1.20 and 1.32 to the dollar.
