Assessment
Brazilian interbank deposit (DI) and Treasury rates have declined for multiple consecutive sessions. This trend is confirmed to be driven by lower US Treasury yields, falling oil prices, and reduced global risk premiums. Domestic political sentiment, specifically optimism regarding a potential opposition win despite tight polls, is also contributing to the market movement.
