Ibovespa Closes at Record 149,540 as Vale Strength and Tech Tailwinds Drive Rally

Vale’s robust earnings, together with big‑tech‑fueled risk appetite, powered the advance.

Overview

  • Vale rose 2.27% after posting third‑quarter results above expectations, including US$ 10.42 billion in revenue and US$ 4.39 billion in EBITDA, and finance chief Marcelo Bacci said extraordinary dividends are likely to be announced soon.
  • Foreign investors recorded net inflows of R$ 665.8 million on Oct. 28 and R$ 756.5 million on Oct. 29, extending a five‑session streak of entries even as the group remains in a monthly deficit of roughly R$ 1.3 billion.
  • Brazil’s labor market stayed resilient, with Pnad unemployment at 5.6% in the quarter to September and Caged reporting 213,002 formal jobs in September, factors that are shaping expectations for the timing of Selic cuts.
  • Wall Street ended higher as Amazon jumped about 9.6% on strong quarterly results, and easing USChina trade tensions after a one‑year truce extension supported global risk sentiment.
  • Fed regional officials delivered relatively hawkish remarks that tempered near‑term US rate‑cut hopes, while European equities fell after the ECB held rates and fresh inflation data pointed to a longer pause.
