Brazil cuts rates again as inflation cools, pulling bond yields down

  • Central bank cuts rates to 14%, signals more easing Brazil's central bank cut its key rate by 0.25 points to 14%, the fourth cut in a row, and said more may come in September. Lower policy rates pull the 10-year bond yield down, because new bonds pay less.

    The rate cut and easing signal are the core force pushing BR-10Y.GB yields lower.

  • Weak industry strengthens case for rate cuts Brazil's June industrial output fell 1.8% from May, worse than expected, as high interest rates squeezed factories. Weak activity gives the central bank more reason to keep cutting rates, which pushes bond yields down.

    Weak growth data reinforces the easing path that lowers BR-10Y.GB yields.

  • Inflation keeps cooling, supporting more rate cuts August inflation slowed to 4.22% a year, below forecasts and inside the central bank's target, with prices actually falling month-on-month. Slower price rises let the central bank cut rates further, pulling bond yields down.

    Falling inflation is the key condition enabling further rate cuts that lower BR-10Y.GB yields.

  • Resilient services and a weaker real are counterweights Services activity beat forecasts, easing growth worries and hinting the easing cycle may be cautious. Separately, Rabobank expects the real to weaken after the Fed hiked and Brazil's Copom cut the Selic to 13.75%, a mix that can limit how far yields fall.

    These are the real counterweights that could slow or limit the yield decline.
