The Ibovespa inched above the 175,000 mark on Friday, as fresh evidence of disinflation strengthened the outlook of lower rates by the BCB. Producer prices rose 1.94% from the previous year in July, slowing from a 2.47% increase in June, and the IGP-M fell from the previous month. Signs of easing inflationary pressures supported credit-sensitive stocks as yields softened. Financials advanced, with Bradesco up 1%, Banco do Brasil gaining more than 1%, and Santander rising nearly 2%. B3 gained nearly 2% after JPMorgan said emerging-market equity funds recorded higher inflows, with Latin America returning to positive territory. Brazil also recovered after four weeks of heavy outflows. Petrobras rose more than 0.5% after Bradesco BBI upgraded the stock to Outperform from Neutral.
