This breakout is going to be so epic.
Almost 20 years later...
The longer the consolidation, the more powerful the breakout tends to be.
This is bullish for Brazil.
What makes this setup particularly interesting is the confluence of technical and macro factors.
The chart is saying:
Brazil has broken out.
The macro picture potentially says:
Brazil may be entering a period where falling rates, strong commodity revenues, structural reforms and improving foreign capital flows can reinforce that breakout.
That's a powerful combination, and if the election brings a more "pro-market" candidate, it could be another catalyst.
I would therefore view the current EWZ breakout less as a short-term trading signal and more as a potential confirmation that a larger secular trend is beginning.
Worth watching.

Existe um tipo de ativo que cresce mesmo quando ninguém está olhando, não aparece em nenhum balanço e rende juros durante décadas. Não é dinheiro. É como você trata as pessoas.

🚨 Never forget…
Your whole idea of buying every dip through ETF and chill is a 13-year illusion.
100 years of S&P 500 real returns, split into regimes:
– 1928-1948: 0.6% a year
– 1949-1968: 12.7%
– 1969-1984: 0.5%
– 1985-1999: 15.1%
– 2000-2012: -0.8%
– 2013-2025: 11.8%
Notice the rhythm. A golden era, then a dead one.
Feast, famine, feast, famine.
Not one regime in a century simply continued.
The long-term average of 7% real that everyone plans with? Almost no generation actually experienced it. You got 12%, or you got zero.
The average is a fiction made of two extremes.
Everyone who started investing after 2009 has only known the feast. Buy the dip worked every single time. Not because it's a law. Because you happened to live inside the blue bar.
But the current run is already as long and as rich as the two golden eras before it. And every one of them ended the same way: not with a warning, with a decade.
Mean reversion doesn't announce itself. It just stops paying.
The next 0.5% decade will feel impossible right up until it starts. It always has.

BofA enxerga nisso um trade secular: ficar comprado em emergentes contra ações americanas.
O indicador atingiu níveis semelhantes ao topo da bolha pontocom em 2000, que antecedeu uma década de domínio dos emergentes.
Será que ainda tem espaço?

Colombia’s elections are officially over, and the shift away from the far left continues to gain momentum across South America.
South America is moving toward a region-wide pro-business agenda unlike anything in recent history.
Investors are still underestimating what could become one of the defining investment themes of the next decade.

El superciclo de commodities NO ha hecho más que empezar
El sector energético ha roto una base de 17 AÑOS!! La subinversión está chocando con la creciente demanda
El mainstream seguirá vendiendo el petróleo como una reliquia, pero recordad que la gran rentabilidad suele estar donde nadie mira..

Nos últimos 75 anos, commodities e bolsas globais alternam ciclos longos de dominância.
Hoje o retorno relativo está em -4% anualizado na janela de 10 anos.
Historicamente, esse nível marca o fundo do ciclo.
O BofA está chamando 2026 como ponto de virada secular.
Os vetores: corrida geopolítica por recursos, capex de IA acima de US$ 750 bilhões, gasto global em defesa se aproximando de US$ 3 trilhões e apreciação silenciosa do yuan.
O investidor brasileiro, com acesso natural a mineração, energia e agro, está bem posicionado para o que vem.

Super Ciclo de commodities
Estamos, ante el mayor superciclo de materias primas de nuestra generación. Y el mercado sigue a otra cosa.
El mundo está intentando hacer todo a la vez: rearmar ejércitos, construir los centros de datos que necesita la IA, electrificar la red, los coches eléctricos, las fábricas, y acelerar la transición energética.
Y todo eso necesita cobre, litio, tierras raras, metales críticos, etc, en cantidades que el mercado no puede producir. El cobre y la plata no se imprimen.
Y claro, a todo esto súmale una de las mayores épocas de devaluación monetaria de la historia de la moneda fiat y déficits fiscales.
Déficits de oferta, déficits fiscales: Hay que estar ciego para no verlo....

Regra de outro para comodities:
- Preço alto aumenta oferta futura.
- Preço baixo mata oferta futura.
Inclusive, muitas vezes o preço dispara não porque a demanda explode, mas porque ninguém teve coragem de investir.

O valor emocional de um bom consultor financeiro!
Segundo a Vanguard, 86% dos investidores com assessoria financeira relatam mais tranquilidade em relação às finanças do que aqueles que investem sozinhos. Além disso, a consultoria reduz em 13% a chance de altos níveis de estresse financeiro.

"In short, the things that everybody feels good about are likely to be the things that are high priced, and the things that everybody feels bad about are likely to be low priced, so if you could find a stock where nobody thinks this company could ever have a good day, maybe there’s a chance that it could produce some favorable surprises and make you a lot of money.
If there’s a company like the Nifty 50 back in 1968, where everybody assumed - literally nothing bad could ever happen to these stocks, then clearly, there has to be so much optimism in the price that there can never be a favorable surprise. We make money from favorable surprises, and if the positive conviction is so high, then by definition, there can never be a favorable surprise. So I think this is a number one concept." - Howard Marks

“Margin of safety is not a Benjamin Graham footnote; it is the central law of survival in an uncertain world. If you don’t have a margin of safety you are not investing, you are merely hoping.

Most of life is just setting yourself up for luck to happen to you.
Life is very much a stochastic process with some non-random and random components.
It is MOSTLY random, so you have very little control over the realisations, but you can very much control the distribution of the randomness AND change the terms of the non-random part of the equation.
If this realisation doesn’t empower you to be more high agency, nothing will!
