Às vésperas do Carnaval, o Ibovespa encerrou a sexta-feira em queda, como se o mercado pedisse uma pausa antes da festa — mas a semana, no conjunto, contou uma história diferente. Impulsionado pela postergação de decisões sobre a meta de inflação e pela promessa de um novo arcabouço fiscal em março, o índice acumulou ganhos de 1,02%, sustentado ainda pelo fluxo positivo de capital estrangeiro. É o retrato de um mercado que busca ancoragem em meio à incerteza: cada sinal de clareza política vira combustível para o otimismo, mesmo que temporário.
