The biggest problem with demonstrations is being broad.

On the day that Covid-19 surpassed half a million deaths in Brazil, its streets were again intensely occupied by politics. At a particularly delicate moment, thousands gathered and criticized. This time they were people opposing the authorities. Caution was used in the masks, but there was no outrage. Before the opposition, it was an attempt to express deep mourning – civil and personal – and its pain. But also a way to respond to the insults of the president of the republic.

Paradoxically, the streets are waking up by Jair Bolsonaro himself. With his denial and subversive style, he encourages division and inevitable protest.

The day before, he had climbed the platform again. He participates in the election campaign: on TV Brasil, he showed a T-shirt with a hint of the 2022 elections. On Thursday, he denounced the ballot boxes that chose him in 2018 to challenge next year’s election in advance. A week earlier, he organized another campaign tour in São Paulo. He disputes the vaccine and acts as if there was no pandemic and half a million lives were not lost. He behaves indifferently to the severity of the position.

These are obvious gestures from those who want to provoke a reaction and cause even deeper conflicts. Like his son in the ranks of the KPI, he acts as a provocateur, hoping for a flash of rage, expecting a blow to justify political brutality. In this way, suppression mechanisms are activated that boast and indicate control. Sing “Give me the reasons”?

However, the protests did not fall into the trap. Peaceful, they were critical, symbolic and strong, more expressive than the previous ones. They indicate the presence of an active and dissatisfied society; but realizing the danger of the virus and political pitfalls. The biggest problem with demonstrations – which will certainly continue – will be not to lose themselves as the electoral tool of parties and candidates. Remain as open as necessary in order to lead the country out of its greatest crisis.

The dollar continues to reflect the political scenario

Yesterday, financial agents evaluated the opposite decision of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) regarding the so-called secret budget. In addition, a decision was made by STF Minister Gilmar Méndez to issue an injunction that would exclude the Bolsa Família from the spending cap rule, with investors trying to understand how this measure would affect the processing of the transitional PEC in the Chamber of Deputies. Oh this PEC!!!!

Since he is an exchange investor, any reading that the budget will be exceeded or become more flexible will negatively affect the exchange market, whether through the PEC or in any other way. We will continue with volatility today.

Looking beyond, the US Central Bank (Fed), although slowing down the pace of monetary tightening at its December meeting, issued a tougher-than-expected statement warning that its fight against inflation was not yet over, raising fears that rising US interest rates will push the world’s largest economy into recession.

The currency market continues to react to political news. The voting on the PEC is saved for today. It is expected that it will indeed be reviewed to open the way tomorrow for discussions on the 2023 budget.

Yesterday, the spot price closed the selling day at R$5.3103.

For today on the calendar we will have an index of consumer confidence in the eurozone. Good luck and good luck in business!!

The EU has reached a political agreement on limiting gas prices – 19.12.2022

Germany sentenced Russian to life imprisonment for political murder by order of Moscow - 12/15/2021
BRUSSELS, DECEMBER 19 (ANSA). European Union countries reached a political agreement on Monday (19) to impose a natural gas price ceiling of 180 euros per megawatt hour (MWh). The main sources of income for Russia and the minimization of the use of energy as a weapon by the regime of Vladimir Putin.

The agreement was approved by a supermajority at a ministerial meeting of member states in Brussels, Belgium, after months of discussions about the best way to contain the rise in natural gas prices in the bloc caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. .

The value set by the countries is well below the proposal made by the European Commission, the EU’s executive body, in November: 275 EUR/MWh. However, the countries leading the cap campaign were in favor of an even lower limit, around 100 EUR/MWh.

Germany, always wary of price controls, voted in favor of 180 euros, while Austria and the Netherlands, also skeptical of the cap, abstained. Hungary, the most pro-Russian country in the EU, voted against.

The instrument will enter into force on 15 February, but only if natural gas prices on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange exceed 180 euros/MWh for three consecutive days. In addition, the difference compared to a number of global benchmarks should be more than 35 euros.

Italy, the EU’s biggest supporter of the ceiling, has claimed responsibility for the measure. “This is a victory for Italy, which believed and worked for us to reach this agreement,” Environment and Energy Minister Gilberto Picetto tweeted.

“This is a victory for Italian and European citizens who demand energy security,” he added.

Currently, the gas price in Amsterdam is around 110 EUR/MWh, which is already a reflection of the agreement in Brussels – in August the figure even broke the barrier of 340 EUR/MWh.

However, Russia has already threatened to stop exports to countries that adhere to the ceiling. (ANSA).
