巴西央行编制的每周Focus调查显示,经济学家将2027年通胀预期从一周前的4.34%上调至4.76%。这一单周大幅跃升大幅收窄了央行在周三Copom(货币政策委员会)会议上降息的空间。

巴西的通胀目标在3%左右,但市场预期已有一段时间运行在该水平之上。经济学家指出,对公共支出的担忧以及雷亚尔走弱对进口价格的影响,是推高预期的因素。卢拉政府的一些盟友仍继续施压央行不顾一切降息。
The sharp one-week jump sharply narrows the central bank's room to cut interest rates at Wednesday's Copom meeting. Brazil's inflation target sits around 3%, but market expectations have run above that level for some time. Economists point to concerns over public spending and the effect of a weaker real on import prices as factors pushing forecasts higher. Some allies of the Lula government continue to press the central bank to cut rates regardless.
分析人士认为,Focus调查的突然跳升将推动货币政策委员会采取更审慎的立场。市场密切关注周三的Copom决定,因为它将塑造远远超出此次单一会议、延伸至2027年的利率路径预期。
Analysts believe the sudden jump in the Focus survey will push the monetary policy committee toward a more cautious stance. Markets are watching Wednesday's Copom decision closely, since it will shape rate-path expectations stretching well beyond this single meeting into 2027.
