Analysis-Brazil bomb attack hurts Bolsonaro comeback efforts, deepening political divide
A failed bomb attack on Brazil's Supreme Court looks set to re-unite Brasilia against far-right radicalism and scuttle a possible comeback by former President Jair Bolsonaro, who is fighting a court decision to bar him from the ballot. But any such institutional response will also feed his supporters' belief that they are being silenced, further polarizing the country which has seen a surge in political violence since the rise of Bolsonaro in 2018. The attack, which killed the bomber but caused no other casualties, brings into sharp focus the extent to which Brazil's Supreme Court has become the target of the hard right's wrath, driven by a deep sense that the court has sought to expel them from the political arena.

Analysis-Investors circle the Trump trade's global market victims
Big global investors are exiting popular trades that bet on U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s tax and tariff policies boosting Wall Street and wreaking damage abroad and swooping in on some of the Nov. 5 election's biggest market victims. After U.S. stocks and the dollar bounced on Trump's growth agenda and trade war fears pressured Chinese, European and emerging market assets, money managers are hunting for bargains in places where pessimism may have gone too far. "The thesis that Trump is good for the U.S. and bad for the rest of the world is a very common narrative," said John Roe, head of multi-asset funds at Legal & General Investment Management, which manages 1.2 trillion pounds ($1.52 trillion) of investments.
