How the daily briefing is built
Today Brazil is a daily briefing on Brazilian markets, written for investors, analysts and executives who follow Brazil from outside it. One edition per day, in English and Portuguese, delivered at 07:00 in the subscriber’s own time zone.
Why it exists
The information is public and abundant. Brazil’s securities regulator, the CVM, publishes material facts every day; companies file market announcements with the B3 exchange; the central bank opens its series; state gazettes run continuously. Access is not the problem.
The problem is that all of it arrives in Portuguese, scattered across dozens of sources and without hierarchy. Meanwhile, the international coverage that does exist is the fraction that already became a headline, days later, without the underlying document.
How an edition is assembled
- 01
Capture
Official sources and the Brazilian economic press are read continuously. When a filing carries a PDF, the file itself is downloaded and archived, not just its link.
- 02
Classify
Every item is matched against the B3 taxonomy: 346 listed issuers, ten official sectors, plus strategic verticals and themes. Anything that matches nothing relevant stops here.
- 03
Merge
When several outlets cover the same event, they become one item that keeps every outlet’s link, rather than several cards repeating the same fact.
- 04
Write
Both language versions are written in the same pass from the same material, preserving figures, names, dates and currencies. From each official document, the model extracts what a professional would act on: values, deadlines, named parties.
- 05
Deliver
The edition is scheduled for 07:00 in each subscriber’s own time zone, in the language and coverage they chose.
The document travels with the story
When a story rests on an official filing, the edition carries the filing itself. A card about a material fact shows what the company actually decided (the figures, the date it was filed, the conditions attached) and links to the original PDF.
Each document is archived with a SHA-256 hash, so what a subscriber opens is verifiably the file the company submitted, not a copy of a summary of it.
What the edition refuses to carry
- No investment recommendations
- Broker model portfolios and “stocks to buy” lists are filtered out. The briefing reports what was filed and published; it does not advise.
- No roundups
- A portal’s “highlights of the day” is an index of other articles, not an article. Including them filled editions with repetition of news already covered individually.
- No inference
- The copy does not state what a document does not say. When the source is silent on something, so is the edition.
A briefing that fits in five minutes is worth as much for what it leaves out as for what it includes.
Choosing coverage
Coverage is picked by B3 sector and by strategic vertical. Sectors follow the exchange’s own classification; verticals cut across them: agribusiness and soft commodities, energy and infrastructure, macro and fiscal policy, capital markets and M&A, legal and regulatory, investment funds. Choosing a sector means asking for full coverage of it: companies, results, M&A, regulation and the executives involved.
Delivery language is independent of coverage: English, Portuguese, or both as two separate editions.
