Another highlight of the week was a report from JP Morgan that raised projections for the American market.

According to Bernardo Pascowitch, founder and CEO of Yubb, the bank estimates that the S&P 500 could reach 9 thousand points in the coming months, driven by the accelerated growth of artificial intelligence companies.

According to him, the projection reinforces the optimism of large investors in relation to American stock markets.

In addition, Thiago Godoy, financial educator highlights the expectation surrounding SpaceX's IPO and the possibility of Brazilian investors accessing the company through ETFs linked to the American market.

Despite the opportunities, Godoy warns of the risks.

"It is important to remember that this type of investment involves volatility. Therefore, the ideal is to invest an amount that is proportional to the assets and risk profile of each investor", he considers.
