Key Points

The Ibovespa closed Tuesday at 176,589, down 0.69%, fading two-thirds of Monday’s bounce and slipping back to the cloud floor it had reclaimed a day earlier.

USD/BRL gave back Monday’s 5.04 break, bouncing off the 4.9836 low to 5.03 and retesting the cloud underside, with MACD still mildly dollar-positive.

Asia ripped to fresh records overnight — Japan’s Nikkei up 1.3% past 65,800 and South Korea’s Kospi up 4.84% — reversing yesterday’s AI-concentration unwind in a single session.

Wall Street returned from Memorial Day to records: the S&P 500 rose 0.61% to 7,519 and the Nasdaq 1.19% to 26,656 on a Micron-led chip surge; the Dow slipped 0.23%.
