Markets expect higher Brazilian rates after President Lula’s re-election raised prospect of larger public spending and upward pressure on inflation. A weekly survey by economists for the Brazil central bank showed expected Selic at 13.75% next month, up from 13.5% previously; economists have raised end-2026 rate expectations for a second consecutive week. Analysts lifted their year‑end inflation forecast to 4.9% from 4.76%, well above the 3% target. Lula’s surprise win has reversed investor hopes of a policy shift, triggering sharp losses in the Brazilian real and equities and adding fiscal and currency weakness risks that could further accelerate inflation. Last week the central bank paused its easing cycle, holding Selic at 13.75% after months of cuts and warning of slowing growth, accelerating inflation and high uncertainty.

Anwar Gargash, the UAE presidential foreign policy adviser, warned on Monday that the Middle East could face prolonged uncertainty. He said a comprehensive political settlement between the US and Iran to end the more-than-eight-month conflict appears unlikely and urged preparation for long-term instability rather than assuming a decisive resolution or a return to a stable regional order. Gargash added the consequences of the US‑Iran war "may be long-lasting" and called on the UAE to increase investment in defensive capabilities, maintain a credible deterrent and strengthen international security partnerships.
