The economy is sending positive signals to the country (and to Lula).
Anyone who finds President Lula's permanent smile, increasingly visible in recent days, strange is misinformed.
The news may not have reached many Brazilians, but the important fact for 2025 is that the country's economy is booming and already showing "above-average" performance, according to financial market giants. The reason is growth that hit 3%, a number that represents a true oasis in the economic desert of much of the planet.
One particular aspect of this moment involves the interest rate, which has remained stable, albeit relatively high, for the fourth consecutive quarter. This stability has a beneficial effect on the economy as a whole – by reducing the cost of productive investments, it favors the production of consumer goods instead of financial speculation, benefiting a population with a history of hardship and difficulties.
Brazilians have seen this movie before in previous administrations. Although the country's economy is often a "box of surprises," as veteran soccer coaches from my youth used to say, the data available today confirms a reality that has persisted for several months, as confirmed by an article published here on May 31, 2025.
Any questions?
