Brazilian future rates plunge, hit oscillation limits as Bolsonaro leads Lula in first round
Valor Econômico·BR·about 21 hours ago
B3 widened daily oscillation limits for DI futures contracts, triggering a sharp selloff in rates as January 2028, 2029, and 2031 contracts fell by roughly 100 basis points intraday. The move suggests heightened market stress or a policy shift, with rates hitting record lows. The expansion may reflect B3's response to extreme volatility, but the underlying driver—whether central bank action or market positioning—remains unclear.
