According to the BTG/Nexus poll, President Lula leads former President Bolsonaro 46 to 45 within the margin of error in Brazil's presidential runoff. Additionally, geopolitical events such as an unidentified projectile attack on an oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz heightened supply chain anxieties. This political neck-and-neck race and supply anxiety originating from the Middle East are acting as major factors expanding volatility in global financial markets. Investors should review their portfolios in preparation for Brazilian political risks and potential Middle Eastern crude oil supply disruptions.
상승 영향
- Crude Oil — Concerns over crude oil supply disruptions due to the tanker attack in the Strait of Hormuz have increased upward pressure on oil prices.
- Defense — Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and the strait attack incident are likely to increase demand for the defense industry.
하락 영향
- Aviation — The rise in crude oil prices caused by the Strait of Hormuz attack directly leads to increased jet fuel costs, deteriorating profitability.
- Shipping — The risk of vessel attacks in the Middle East strait increases the burden of operating costs, such as route detours and soaring insurance premiums.
DYAX 전담 분석
As the approval rating gap in the Brazilian presidential election narrows to 1 percentage point, volatility in Brazilian asset markets due to policy uncertainty is increasing. Concurrently, the oil tanker attack in the Strait of Hormuz threatens the crude oil supply chain, leading to causal relationships that increase cost pressures on the shipping and aviation industries.
The bullish scenario is the stabilization of crude oil prices through the prevention of escalation in the Middle East and the peaceful conclusion of the Brazilian presidential election, while the bearish scenario is a surge in oil prices and political turmoil in Brazil due to the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Key indicators to watch are the Brazilian Real exchange rate and Brent crude futures prices.
