Key Points
The Ibovespa snapped its losing run Tuesday, rising 0.68% to 169,813 as it bounced off a key long-term support line.
The rebound was regional: Chile jumped 3.3% and Colombia 2.7%, with the whole neighbourhood lifting off its recent lows together.
The real steadied, with the dollar near 5.18 reais, as the dollar’s powerful recent climb finally paused.
The mood is fragile, though: the United States struck Iran after US markets closed Tuesday, a fresh escalation that will shape the global tone today.
