The week begins with the stock exchanges closed in the United States, which indicates a day of pause in the main American markets.

In Europe, the European Central Bank is expected to proceed with an interest rate hike, showing continuity in its restrictive monetary policy.

The article thus presents a week marked by significant events in both American and European markets, with a focus on debt, inflation and monetary policy decisions.

Europe regulates, Portugal complicates, and the world moves forward | Editorial by Henrique Dias Freire

Europe is losing ground in global automobile production, with Asia representing more than 60% of world production in 2025, while the European Union falls below 15%. Volkswagen, despite selling nine million vehicles, plans to eliminate tens of thousands of jobs, which could mean more than a thousand workers lost from Portuguese suppliers in the next three years. The editorial warns that European environmental regulations are necessary but insufficient without industrial policies that ensure energy competitiveness and conditions for manufacturing locally. It also points to Portuguese bureaucracy as an additional obstacle to investment, criticizing the tendency to add national requirements to European rules. It argues that factories sustain not only jobs but also democratic stability, and that an ecological transition that does not create jobs in Europe risks worsening inequalities and fueling populism.

'Brazil needs to lower costs and scale up its logistics,' says Maersk president

Ricardo Rocha, president of Maersk in the East Coast of South America, stated that Brazil needs to reduce costs and expand the scale of its logistics infrastructure to become more competitive. The country ranks among the five largest markets of the Danish company in the world, which operates in the sectors of maritime transport, logistics, terminals and cabotage for over a hundred years in Brazil. Despite challenges such as Chinese quotas and the suspension of beef purchases by the European Union, which impacted cargo transport, Maersk projects growth of its activities in the country in 2026. Rocha highlighted that the company's vertical model — in which the ship, the warehouse and the terminal belong to the same organization — facilitates adaptation and growth of operations in the region.
