Just over a month to go before the first round of the 2022 elections, and Brazil is already fully immersed in discussions about the election. The financial market, however, is surprising by adopting a certain calm, even in the face of a scenario that, in past years, was already characterized by increases in the dollar and reactions in the stock market.
The relative stability draws more attention when analyzing the turmoil that is going through the international economy. The performance of domestic assets is much more linked to the foreign market than to the political dispute, but Brazil, even so, seems to slip away. This is because, like other commodity-based economies, robust companies focused on the sector have ensured a flow of financial investment here.
This Tuesday’s episode (23) of CNN Money turns to the behavior of the international financial market. Especially in the United States, the mood is one of anxiety, as investors anticipate the course of interest rates to fight inflation.
In Europe, on the other hand, the climate is one of anguish. Earlier this morning, a series of results from the Eurozone and UK Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) showed that there is an ongoing slowdown in economic activity – and that it could still get worse.
Presented by Thais Herédia and Priscila Yazbek, CNN Money presents a balance of news issues that influence markets, finances and the direction of society and power dynamics in Brazil and worldwide.
