After three days of retreat, Brazil's financial markets found momentary footing on Tuesday, carried upward by the weight of its banking giants and the distant hope of diplomatic progress between Washington and Tehran. The Ibovespa's modest 0.68% rise was less a declaration of strength than a pause in uncertainty — a breath taken before the next wind arrives. Markets, like human moods, often recover not because the underlying conditions have changed, but because the will to sell has simply exhausted itself.
