The dollar exchange has shown an upward trend for more than five weeks, rebounding for a very low of around ¢502 and ¢503.

Different economists have explained that the adjustments have been relatively small, but continuous, making them significant, and that the increases are related to factors that have decreased the supply of U.S. dollars and increased demand in the exchange market.
