Volatility and low prices could stimulate investments in search of bargains in Brazil, says Financial Times

The British newspaper Financial Times states in a report that the previous presidential elections in Brazil were marked by large fluctuations in the prices of financial assets. This time, although Brazilians are preparing to vote again and the electoral campaign is hot, the markets have been operating with little volatility.

O british financial diary (🇬🇧🚥) states that the one-month volatility in the Real, an indicator of how much money investors are willing to pay to protect themselves from currency changes over the next 30 days, is 16,6. This is well below the level of nearly 30 reached at the start of the pandemic in early 2020.

The FT states that despite the risks to the Brazilian economy, such as the growing public deficit, the country's stock market represents a good entry point for bargain hunters among investors.
