Investors fear lack of political articulation of the Bolsonaro government

Jair Bolsonaro was never a liberal. During the more than two decades in which he has been a federal deputy in Brazil, his political performance has always been close to interventionist policies.

There is an evident difficulty of the president in defending the liberal agenda of the minister Paulo Guedes. To make matters worse, it is also very evident that the current president does not believe much of this agenda. For this reason, Bolsonaro defends little or almost nothing the agenda of its own government.

The CCJ stage in the Pension Reform, which was seen as something easy, ended up becoming very difficult for a disjointed government.
This has helped to worsen many of the country's growth projections. The government's ability to implement the reforms advocated during the campaign produced dismay among Brazilian and foreign investors.

The deterioration of the Brazilian economy will make even more difficult the life of a government that until now has been completely disarticulated in the political plane.

This picture produced a lot of reluctance from foreign investors to bet on Brazil, especially after it became clear the Brazilian government will not be able to produce the liberal shock that the market expected. As a result, Brazil will be experiencing continued volatility in the coming days.
