Brazil is world's largest producer and exporter of Sugar. About 26% of world's sugar is exported by Brazil.
With sugar prices down, Brazil's pain is unlikely to subside any time soon.
This year amid commodity rout, Brazilian economy is suffering with slowdown, high inflation and currency depreciation.
Brazilian Real, which is trading at 3.185 against dollar, is likely to depreciate further. However, dollar bulls might reconsider immediate jump as bearish doji is at play in daily chart.
