AGP Executive Report
Last update: 28 minutes agoAmazon Fires: Wildfires are choking Manaus with unhealthy air. The city suspended in-person work at municipal offices, canceled public school classes and urged residents to wear masks; this year’s Amazon fire hotspots are nearly 50% above the same point in 2025. Election Runoff: Flávio Bolsonaro leads Lula 49% to 45% in Datafolha’s first runoff poll, but the survey describes the race as a technical tie. The October 25 contest is further roiled by a Supreme Court order to arrest Eduardo Bolsonaro, Flávio’s brother, and revoke his passports over a conviction for pressuring the judiciary. Economy and Payments: Brazil’s inflation rose to 4.58% year-on-year in September. Pix, the country’s instant-payment system, passed one billion registered keys, though the Central Bank says that does not equal one billion users.
