Brazil's Markets on Friday
The Brazilian stock market experienced a tumultuous week as investors grappled with the government's latest fiscal announcements. The Ibovespa, Brazil's main stock index, closed with a slight gain of 0.86% at 125,676.39 points on Friday. However, this modest increase did little to offset the week's overall losses.
The market's performance reflected a growing unease among investors. The Ibovespa recorded its worst weekly decline since mid-September, falling 2.46%. This downward trend extended to the monthly outlook, with November showing a 2.9% decrease. Investor sentiment soured following the government's unexpected announcement of an income tax reform.
The proposal, which aims to increase the tax-exempt income threshold to 5,000 reais per month, caught many off guard. It raised concerns about the government's commitment to fiscal responsibility.
