2026-02-02 21:37 By Felipe Alarcon 1 min. read

The Ibovespa rose 0.8% to close at 182,793 on Monday, extending gains as investors positioned ahead of a heavy earnings calendar and rotated back into large-cap financials and defensives.

Banks led the advance, with Santander up 1.4%, Bradesco gaining 1.1%, Banco do Brasil adding 0.3%, and Itaúsa rising 1.5%, reflecting steady expectations ahead of fourth-quarter results.

Utilities also outperformed, led by Eletrobras, up 2.3%, alongside strength in sanitation and energy distributors.

Vale climbed 0.8%, providing additional support, while Ambev rose 1.6%.

Petrobras lagged, falling 2%, as oil prices slid sharply after comments from US President Trump pointing to easing tensions with Iran reduced geopolitical risk premia.

Overall gains were capped by softer commodity prices and renewed caution after Brazil’s manufacturing PMI fell further into contraction in January, reinforcing signs of uneven domestic momentum.
