The Brazilian economy advanced 1.7% year-on-year in the first quarter of 2022, picking up from a 1.6% expansion in the previous three-month period but slightly below market expectations of a 1.8% rise. It was the fifth consecutive quarter of economic expansion, driven by a 2.2% increase in household consumption amid higher demand for in-person services as Covid restrictions were relaxed. Also, government expenditure grew by 3.3%. On the other hand, gross fixed capital formation retreated by 7.2%, halting five consecutive quarters of growth amid lower levels of domestic production and imports of capital goods. Meanwhile, net trade contributed negatively to GDP growth, as goods and services imports jumped by 11%, while exports rose at a softer 8.1%. On a seasonally adjusted quarterly basis, the GDP rose 1%, picking up from a 0.7% increase in the previous period. source: Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE)
