周一,Ibovespa指数下跌0.6%,收于135299点,投资者正在努力应对美国对巴西出口征收50%关税的前景,以及新宣布的对欧盟和墨西哥征收30%关税的威胁,这将直接挤压关键大宗商品和制造业出口商。在国内,5月份的IBC Br经济活动指数环比下降0.7%,标志着今年首次出现收缩,并突显出经济放缓比经济学家预测的更为严重,这在很大程度上是由于农业和工业的疲软造成的。在此背景下,从巴西国家石油公司、淡水河谷到巴西航空工业公司的企业重量级股票都面临压力,巴西国家石油天然气公司因对燃料需求和炼油利润率的担忧下跌0.8%,淡水河谷因铁矿石价格疲软下跌1.3%,巴西航空工业股份公司受到即将到来的飞机关税的打击,而金融业在信贷增长趋紧和关于扩大金融交易IOF税的讨论中苦苦挣扎。
The Ibovespa fell 0.6% to close at 135,299 on Monday, as investors grappled with the prospect of a 50% US tariff on Brazilian exports, threatened alongside newly announced 30% duties on the EU and Mexico, which would directly pinch key commodity and manufacturing exporters. Domestically, May’s IBC-Br economic activity index fell 0.7% month-on-month, marking the first contraction of the year and underscoring a sharper slowdown than economists had forecast, driven in large part by weakness in agriculture and industry. Against this backdrop, corporate heavyweight stocks from Petrobras and Vale to Embraer have come under pressure, Petrobras fell 0.8% on concerns about fuel demand and refining margins, Vale dropped 1.3% on softer iron-ore prices, and Embraer was hit by looming aircraft tariffs, while financials have struggled amid tighter credit growth and talk of expanding the IOF tax on financial transactions.
