Ibovespa reaches 15th consecutive gain and hits historic records.<\/h2>\n

The main index of the Brazilian stock exchange, the Ibovespa, closed up 1.60% this Tuesday (11), at 157,748.60 points, marking the 15th consecutive rise \u2014 the longest sequence since 1994. During the trading session, the index even surpassed 158,000 points, reaching the unprecedented mark of 158,467.21 points. The performance reflects the optimism of investors with the slowdown in inflation in Brazil, which in October registered an increase of only 0.09%, the lowest level for the month since 1998. In the accumulated 12 months, the IPCA was at 4.68%, below market expectations, which increases the chances of a reduction in the country's interest rate. The dollar closed down 0.62%, quoted at R$ 5.2746[2].<\/p>\n
