Global Economy Briefing — July 8, 2026
Wall Street slipped as Samsung's disappointing earnings and reports that China's DeepSeek is developing its own AI chip triggered a semiconductor sell‑off. Oil prices jumped after tanker attacks near the Strait of Hormuz and the U.S. moved to revoke Iran's oil‑sale licence, raising inflation concerns. The odds of a Federal Reserve rate hike in September rose to about 58%, influencing the Brazilian real and the Selic policy outlook.
- ▪The Nasdaq fell 1.16% to 25,818.69 following Samsung's results and news of DeepSeek's AI chip development.
- ▪Brent crude rose more than 5% above $76 and WTI topped $72 after Hormuz‑related attacks and the U.S. revoking Iran's oil licence.
- ▪Fed rate‑hike odds increased to roughly 58% for September, the single biggest variable affecting Brazil's real and Selic path.
- ▪The U.S. 10‑year Treasury yield climbed to about 4.50%, a two‑week high driven by the oil rally.
