The theme is that a reform-minded Brazilian government would bring fiscal consolidation, deregulation and faster rate cuts, lifting Brazilian assets as foreign capital returns. Nine houses argue for this thesis, with researchers pointing to expected fiscal tightening, falling Selic rates and strong inflows into Brazil-focused funds after the first election round. Twenty-seven houses take the opposing view, arguing that Lula's fourth-term win leaves fiscal concerns unresolved, keeps rates high for longer and has driven a sharp currency selloff.
