Closing Investment "September" (03/12/25)
The Ibovespa hit a new record for the second consecutive day and closed above 161 thousand points, driven by the rises of Vale and Petrobras. The movement came after weak economic data from the U.S. increased bets on interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. Here in Brazil, expectations are also growing for a possible Selic drop in January. Meanwhile, the dollar fell to around R$ 5.30.
In politics, a new bill aims to allow the seizure of cryptocurrencies used in illegal betting, with confiscation of assets and penalties of up to five years in prison for operators. The proposal reinforces the fight against money laundering and seeks to tighten the net against irregular sites that use crypto to escape oversight.
Meanwhile, in the international scenario, the United Kingdom has passed a historic law: now Bitcoin is recognized as personal property, allowing for legal disputes, inheritance, and even use as collateral. The decision should facilitate seizures, but it also paves the way for new financial products. Bitcoin, by the way, has recovered and is back to operating above $93,000, pulling other cryptos along.
And to wrap up, Sony has fully entered the crypto world: the giant plans to launch its own stablecoin for in-game payments. The idea is to allow faster and cheaper purchases on PlayStation without relying on traditional cards. If it works out, it could completely change the gaming market and force competitors like Microsoft and Nintendo to react.
