▶ Tensions in the Middle East are once again on investors' radar this Monday. Over the weekend, Israel and Iran exchanged direct attacks for the first time since the ceasefire in April. The sequence began with an Israeli offensive on Beirut at the weekend. Tehran responded with missiles and generated new retaliations. The attacks were only stopped after an appeal from American President Donald Trump.
Amid the tensions, oil prices on the international market are rising. Around 11:45 am, a barrel of Brent, an international reference, rose 1.69%, quoted at US$ 94.66. West Texas Intermediate (WTI), from the United States, rose 1.69%, quoted at US$ 94.66 per barrel.
▶ On the indicator agenda, the highlights of the week are the new inflation data from Brazil and the United States. The European Central Bank's (ECB) interest rate decision is also on the radar.
This Monday, the BC's Focus Bulletin registered a new increase in inflation estimates by the financial market in 2026, in the 13th consecutive week of increase. Analysts also began to project a smaller interest rate cut this year.

Escalating tensions in the Middle East
The war in the Middle East plunged into a new phase, after Iran and Israel exchanged mutual attacks for the first time since the April ceasefire. (follow the main events)
The offensive began last Sunday, after Iran launched a series of missiles towards Israel last Sunday, in retaliation for an Israeli attack on the capital of Lebanon. As a result, Israel carried out new bombings of "military targets" in Iran - explosions were heard in Tehran, Tabriz and Isfahan, according to the Al Jazeera TV network.
This was also the second time in less than 24 hours that Israel defied Donald Trump and carried out attacks on countries in the region.
"The Israeli Air Force attacked military targets belonging to the Iranian terrorist regime in western and central Iran recently," the Israeli forces said on their social media.
Trump tried to establish a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, which operates in Lebanon, during the week. Israel violated the agreement, however, by bombing Beirut.
Trump used his profile on Truth Social to show his dissatisfaction with the return of clashes between the two countries, but stated that Iran and Israel "are seeking" a ceasefire agreement after the new attacks.
