LatAm Pre-Open — Tuesday, August 25, 2026
LATAM pre-open: soft US futures and steady oil frame a selective open across Brazil, Mexico, Chile and Argentina. Real, Selic and flows in focus. The post LatAm Pre-Open — Tuesday, August 25, 2026 appeared first on The Rio Times .
Latin America's pre-open trading on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, did not show any strong directional movement. The overnight tape offered no clear direction, with Asia's tech caution and a flat US futures market dampening Monday's regional momentum. Energy-sensitive exchanges in Brazil and Colombia remained cautious as oil recovered slightly after a sharp drop.
Santiago and Buenos Aires markets were digesting previous session's gains, with Brazil's Ibovespa closing at 171,907, up 0.51%. Four consecutive daily gains for the Ibovespa and selective buying in resource names indicated foreign rotation into Latin America, rather than passive beta. The absence of fresh oil momentum and soft US futures suggested a start to the day in repair mode rather than breakout mode.
The key to watch was Wednesday's IPCA inflation print and US PCE report, as they would determine if the regional value trade would continue its four-day momentum or stall.
