Labor re-entry for mothers is low; half don’t return to formal jobs post-maternity. If high rates curb domestic demand, joblessness could climb. Near term, low unemployment boosts consumer spending.

Inflation runs above target (~5–6% vs 3%). The Central Bank warns wage-driven services & external tariffs (US–China) keep policy “restrictive for longer” to anchor expectations. #Inflation #Brazil #BrazilApril2025
