The peso appreciates against the dollar: it is listed at 22.51

The peso closed the session with an appreciation of 0.17% or 3.8 cents, trading around 22.51 pesos per dollar, in a day characterized by a greater appetite for risk in global financial markets, which allowed the appreciation of most currencies against the dollar and earnings on most global capital market indices.

Risk appetite stems from advances in initial testing of a coronavirus vaccine developed by the pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford.

The optimism is also due to the fact that progress has been made in Europe in the negotiations for a new fiscal stimulus that will help the countries most affected by the pandemic and that could be announced in the next few hours.

Finally, there is also the expectation that a new fiscal stimulus package will be agreed in the United States before the end of the month.
