🟢 Focused Region ETF (EWZ) is trading 3.51% up today as crude prices lift Petrobras

EWZ is trading at a 3.51% gain, driven primarily by Brazil’s equity rally and Petrobras’s gains as Middle East tensions lifted crude prices.

• The Ibovespa rose 1.30%, extending its winning streak to ten sessions.
• Petrobras gained 4.1%, while Brazil’s real strengthened against the dollar.
• The broader geopolitical oil shock is benefiting Brazil’s large energy exposure; renewed Selic easing expectations support stocks, outweighing cautious global risk sentiment and higher U.S. yields.
