The Brazilian economy's reliance on commodities and the financial sector makes it vulnerable to fluctuations in global commodity prices and interest rates.

Brazil's economic instability in 2024 was driven by fiscal mismanagement, rising debt, and inflation, leading to a 35% drop in the EWZ ETF. Despite initial bearish projections, EWZ rebounded in early 2025, driven by improved investor sentiment and global market rotations favoring emerging markets.
