In the session, the exchange rate traded in a channel between 20.2395 and 20.4343, without a defined direction, a sign that the peso-dollar parity is in a process of consolidation around the level of 20.30 pesos per dollar.

The lack of trend is due to the uncertainty regarding the pandemic and the future of the global economic recovery.
