Tuesday opens at 19°C in São Paulo with 20% rain — mild, clear and the best outdoor day of the week so far. MASP is free today, its weekly free Tuesday, with the Damián Ortega survey and the Lina Bo Bardi glass easels, 10h–18h at Av. Paulista 1578.

The Pinacoteca is closed today — its one weekly closure is Tuesday. The full Paulista corridor (Itaú Cultural, IMS Paulista, Japan House SP, Casa das Rosas) is back open after Monday’s pause.

The Ibovespa fell 0.91% on Monday to 172,197 points — a fifth consecutive daily loss, the lowest close since January 21. New Gulf of Persia attacks re-escalated US-Iran tensions and drove the session lower.

The World Cup build-up continues: Brazil x Egypt in Cleveland on Saturday June 6, the last warmup. Group C opens June 14 — Brazil vs Morocco, New Jersey, 19h BRT.
