Investors closely monitor the Focus Bulletin to gauge market expectations and adjust their investment strategies accordingly.



In Germany, at 5:55 AM , the Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) will be released. As Europe's largest economy, Germany's manufacturing performance is a key indicator of economic health in the Eurozone.







A PMI reading above 50 indicates expansion, while below 50 signals contraction. Strong German manufacturing data can boost global economic confidence and may influence demand for Brazilian exports.



At 6:00 AM , the Eurozone Manufacturing PMI will be announced. This composite index reflects manufacturing activity across member countries. Positive data may signal economic growth in the region, potentially impacting global trade dynamics and investor sentiment.



Later today, at 10:45 PM , China will release its Services PMI . As one of Brazil's major trading partners, China's economic indicators significantly affect global commodity markets.
