▶ The payroll, the official report on the American labor market, is the main highlight this Thursday. The expectation is that the data will indicate the creation of 115 thousand job vacancies in the country. The document is used by the Federal Reserve (Fed, the central bank of the USA) as a thermometer of the economy and employment and could bring new signals about the future of interest rates in the country.
The day before, the president of the Fed, Kevin Warsh, stated that the risks of rising prices have reduced in the USA, but reinforced that the institution is committed to bringing inflation to the Fed's target of 2%.
▶ Investors also keep an eye on other economic indicators. On the agenda, expectations continue for initial unemployment insurance claims in the USA and the unemployment rate in the euro zone.
▶ In Brazil, the market also continues to evaluate the new sanctions imposed by the American government against two Brazilians, three companies based in Brazil and a Portuguese company for alleged links with the criminal faction Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC). (understand more below)

US sanctions against Brazilians
The Trump administration's sanctions against two Brazilians, three companies based in Brazil and a Portuguese company for alleged links with the PCC were formalized by the US Treasury Department last Wednesday (1st).
With the sanctions, the targets' U.S. assets are blocked, among other measures. Understand.
In the Treasury Department's statement, the Trump administration once again called the CCP the "largest transnational criminal organization in the Western Hemisphere" and stated that the faction represents a "significant threat to US national security."
In addition, he accused the PCC of using the North American financial system to launder money.
According to the US, the sanctioned Brazilians were part of an international PCC money laundering network, which has been investigated in Florida.
Another six accused of being part of this money laundering network were arrested in January this year in the North American state, according to the statement.
