The Ibovespa rose 0.6% to close at 172,788 on Thursday after the release of the US payroll report, the Federal Reserve’s key gauge of labor market conditions, which came in much weaker than expected. Softer job creation reduced the likelihood of further Fed rate hikes in the coming months, improving global risk sentiment. Meanwhile, oil prices eased as the gradual normalization of shipping flows through the Strait of Hormuz raised expectations of higher supply, further easing concerns over energy-driven inflation and supporting expectations of a more dovish stance from major central banks. Financial stocks led gains, with Bradesco up 0.7% and Banco do Brasil rising 1.4%. Other notable gainers included Rede D'Or (+1.5%) and Embraer (+1.5%).
