Brazilian stocks have extended their year-to-date gain to about 20% on renewed optimism that Latin America’s largest economy will finally overhaul its heavily indebted social security system. But the rally that has pushed the market to record highs still may have some juice left. The benchmark Ibovespa index may climb 11% from current levels to about 115,000 by the end of 2019, according to the average forecast of 10 strategists surveyed by Bloomberg. Their targets range from 105,000 to 123,000, implying an increase of as much as 18%. That would mark the fourth year of double-digit gains for Brazilian stocks.

The acceleration of investments in renewable power generation is seen as a response from the oil industry to the emissions reduction goals defined in the Paris Agreement within the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. “The attitude of the oil sector has changed. It has already noticed it will be an agent in the transformation that is taking place and that it's not possible to fight this new reality,” the president of the business council for sustainable development (CEBDS), Marina Grossi, said.
