Flávio Bolsonaro's 47.03% victory in the first round of the presidential election has sent the Ibovespa to a record high, sparking both euphoria and fear across the region. Meanwhile, Mexico grapples with a school bomb threat and the Cervantino festival, while Chile mourns two slain police officers and seeks US$25 billion in debt. Argentina faces job losses at Granja Tres Arroyos, and Colombia celebrates economic optimism with exports surging. Peru and Colombia's mayoral races remain undecided, with a 0.86-point difference separating the top contenders. Prediction markets show Bolsonaro with an 84% chance of winning in both Brazil and Peru.",
