00:00:00 - 00:00:00

In the YouTube video "Brasileiro muda hábitos e reduz consumo por conta da alta inflação," the speaker explores how Brazilians have adjusted to high inflation, particularly in the supermarket sector where prices have surged. The consumer price index has hit around 8% for the year, with meat being a significantly impacted item. People are now consuming more chicken and less red meat, and domestic consumption is slowing due to rising unemployment, which reached 8.3% in the second quarter of the year, the highest in the last three years. The industry, including the automotive sector, has also been negatively affected. The central bank, Copom, increased interest rates to a record high to fight inflation, making credit more expensive for consumers. As a result, Daniel Emiliano, who had intended to buy a car, is now considering postponing the purchase. The speaker also touches on the economic and political crises, lack of business confidence, and investor flight as contributing factors to the strengthening US dollar and the decline in international travel to the US.

The consumer price index has reached approximately 8% for the year, with meat being one of the most affected items. As a result, people are consuming more chicken and less red meat.
