Decision day is almost here. The central bank’s rate-setting committee meets today and tomorrow, with the call on interest rates due tomorrow evening.
It is a genuinely open decision. A small cut is the favourite, but inflation forecasts have crept higher, and a hold is no longer off the table.
The weather is kinder than it looks. At 19°C and mostly dry, it is a cool but workable São Paulo Tuesday — a light jacket sees you through.
And it is a free art day. MASP, the city’s signature museum, opens its doors at no charge every Tuesday — perfect timing while the Pinacoteca rests.
