Market awaits decision on interest rates in Brazil and the US on “Super Wednesday”; IPI has limited effect


The week begins with eyes on interest rate decisions in Brazil and the US on Wednesday (4).

In Brazil, the Selic rate is expected to increase by 1 percentage point, while in the US, the American rate is expected to be raised by 0.50 percentage point.

Investors will keep an eye out for signals from the Fed and the Brazilian Central Bank about monetary entities’ intentions for upcoming meetings.

Also in Brazil, experts estimate that the government is accelerating economic measures to alleviate the impacts of inflation and the low income of the population in an election year.

According to them, the reduction of the IPI can generate a positive effect in terms of price to the final consumer, but the industry is very pressured by the high costs and must have difficulties in passing on these values.

Presented by Thais Herédia and Priscila Yasbek, the CNN Money presents a balance of news issues that influence markets, finances and the direction of society and the dynamics of power in Brazil and in the world.
