Brazil's government said Monday it would levy a total of $591 million in retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods under a ruling against U.S. cotton subsidies granted by a World Trade Organization ruling last year.
Brazilian inflation rose to a 12-month rate of 4.83% as of February, up from 4.59% as of January, on rising education, food and fuel costs, the Brazilian Census Bureau (IBGE) said Friday.
Brazilian industrial production posted a whopping 16% year-on-year growth rate in January, signaling a robust economic recovery for 2010, the Brazilian Census Bureau (IBGE) said Thursday.
The U.S. and Brazil will open a series of talks next week in an effort to avoid trade retaliation and possible counter-retaliation in a case involving alleged U.S. cotton subsidies.
