Markets will receive June inflation data at 04:00 ET, with MoM expected to slow to 0.31% from 0.58% and YoY to rise modestly to 4.80% from 4.72%. The releases carry medium impact and will update 2026 inflation expectations directly. No other Brazil-specific events appear on the calendar for July 10.
Retail sales and industrial production figures remain scheduled for later in the week. Traders will monitor whether the inflation surprise alters odds of an August Selic adjustment.
Other Economic Notes
The IMF upgraded its Latin America growth forecast and highlighted diverging paths between Brazil and Mexico. Brazil’s May trade surplus hit record levels on soybean and oil exports, supporting the external balance. Fiscal issuance plans for NTN-F bonds in Q3 remain consistent with the primary-deficit target.
Digital-inclusion metrics show persistent gaps in access across regions, though these carry limited near-term market impact. Commodity-export resilience continues to anchor the current-account outlook.
