CALDEIRÃO DE BOLSA

Muito bem!!
Défice em conta corrente nos EUA alto a reflectir já o aumento do défice da balança comercial, como tinha referido no outro tópico.

Era de esperar. Curioso é que os mercados podem agora retomar esta questão, até porque vamos andar até dia 24 sem grandes dados.

É "apenas" mais um factor de risco acrescido... cautela e caldos de galinha...

Um abraço
