9 Small-Cap ETFs to Buy Now

Brazilian small-cap stocks are impacted by long-term interest rates, and the expectation of slower rate cuts has tempered optimism in the second half of 2023. Rising inflation and fiscal uncertainties have led to a weakening Brazilian real, affecting commodities and agribusiness. While lower interest rates in the long term could favor the EWZS, the short-term outlook is cautious, with a shift to a neutral stance due to micro and macroeconomic challenges.

EWZS: Brazil's Long-Term Interest Rates Sound The Alarm (Rating Downgrade)

The iShares MSCI Brazil Small-Cap ETF offers exposure to small-capitalization Brazilian equities, buying weighted ADRs to replicate the index results. However, exchange rate variations can affect the fund's value. Despite political and macroeconomic risks, Brazilian small-cap stocks are seen as undervalued and could yield returns as the base interest rate decreases. The EWZS has recovered almost 40% year-to-date after a significant devaluation. Caution is advised due to high household debt levels in Brazil, uncertainty around tax reform, and the potential for a slower interest rate reduction.
