Analysis

The Brazilian real closed down about 9% on 26 Oct after falling as much as 12% during the day, one of its steepest one-day drops in decades, following Lula's runoff win with 51.8%. The dollar rose from R$4.99 at Friday's close to a peak of R$5.605. Investors had priced a win for Flávio Bolsonaro, who was seen as more market-friendly.

Brazil's Ibovespa stock index closed down 13.9% after a 30-minute trading halt, and the Treasury cancelled its debt auctions for 27 to 29 Oct. The Selic rate is 13.75%, and fiscal policy is the main risk.

Levels for 26 to 30 Oct: Support 5.425 and 5.20. Resistance 5.605 and 5.80.
