The Fund seeks to track the investment results of the MSCI Brazil 25/50 Index (the Underlying Index), which is a free float-adjusted market capitalization-weighted index that is designed to measure the performance of the large- and mid-capitalization segments of the equity market in Brazil. The Underlying Index is rebalanced quarterly using an optimization process that aims to minimize the constituent weight differences between the Underlying Index and the MSCI Brazil Index (the Parent Index). The Underlying Index uses a capping methodology that limits the weight of any single group entity (constituents that MSCI determines have a control relationship) to a maximum of 25% of the Underlying Index weight, and the sum of all group entities with a weight above 5% to an aggregate of 50% of the Underlying Index weight. A group entity is a group of companies that operate as an affiliated corporate group but may separately issue listed securities.

Brazil's Supreme Court announced Tuesday that it was lifting a ban on X, after the social media site had been blocked in its biggest Latin American market for over a month amid a row over disinformation.
"I authorize the immediate return of the activities" of the social platform, Judge Alexandre de Moraes said in his ruling, after X settled millions of dollars in fines for breaching court orders relating to the fight against misinformation.

Brazil's central bank will likely raise interest rates for the first time in two years due to a heated economy and an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40919701/investors-betting-on-50-basis-point-rate-cut-expert-says-market-pressure-could-sw">above-target inflation outlook</a>.
In contrast, the U.S. central banking system just cut rates by a half percentage point Wednesday afternoon. 
Brazilian policymakers led by Roberto Campos Neto will lift the benchmark Selic by 25 basis points to 10.75% late on Wednesday, according to 31 of 35 economists in a Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-18/brazil-readies-interest-rate-hike-diverging-with-fed?srnd=phx-economics-v2&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">survey</a>.
Two economists are forecasting a higher increase of 50 basis points the other two expect the rate to stay the same.
Most traders are expecting a rise of 25 basis points, with digital options at the local stock market pricing in a 15% chance of a 50 basis-point hike.
Latin America's largest economy differentiates itself from peer economies as its economic activity shows resilience to high borrowing costs. President&nbsp;Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva's increased public spending is boosting family income that is propped up supported by low unemployment.

 A resilient economy along with questions about the government's commitment to fiscal responsibility are feeding into inflation projections which are above the 3% goal through 2027.
"Brazil's central bank is widely expected to embark on a hiking cycle on Wednesday, but there's plenty of questions that the post-meeting communication could clarify,&#8221; said Adriana Dupita, Brazil and Argentina economist for Bloomberg Economics.
&#8220;W expect the BCB to strike a delicate balance as it aims for a hawkish tone to curb inflation expectations, flexibility to adjust the rate path on new data and to push back on market pricing for aggressive hikes. Achieving all three is a tall task."

On September 5, 2024, U. S. Steel, along with the United Steelworkers union ("USW") and Wheeling-Nippon, has filed antidumping and countervailing duty petitions with the United States Department of Commerce ("DOC") and the United States International Trade Commission ("ITC"), on imports of corrosion-resistant steel ("CORE") from Australia, Brazil, Canada1, Mexico, Netherlands, South Africa, Taiwan, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam.
Duane D. Holloway, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Chief Ethics &amp; Compliance Officer of U. S. Steel, commented, "As we have for decades, U. S. Steel continues to lead the domestic industry in the fight against unfair trade on behalf of our workers, families, communities, and customers we serve. These new trade cases—the largest filed by U. S. Steel in nearly a decade—will address low-priced and subsidized CORE imports that continue to pour into the U.S. market. These cases aim to restore a level playing field and support our investments in Big River Steel's new dual coating line and second mini-mill in Arkansas, as well as U. S. Steel's CORE facilities across the country."

The Bank of Japan&#8217;s sudden U-turn on policy has ignited strong reactions on Wall Street this week, with investors now eyeing significant interest rate cuts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/interest-rates">from the Federal Reserve.</a>
Bank of America&#8217;s chief investment strategist, Michael Hartnett, believes that Wall Street has effectively forced the Bank of Japan into the decision to halt rate hikes during periods of market turmoil.
In his latest &#8220;Flow Show&#8221; report, Hartnett analyzed the implications of one of the most volatile weeks in global markets since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. 
&#8220;Wall Street has now (painfully) stopped BoJ hikes&#8230; its next goal appears to be bossing the Fed into big rate cuts,&#8221; Hartnett wrote.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Big Cuts Are Needed To Avoid Hard Landing</h3>
Hartnett indicated that the elevated interest rates are beginning to take a toll on small businesses. He suggested that significant rate cuts are necessary to avoid a hard landing for the economy. 
Currently, the U.S. prime rate – which is the lowest interest rates at which small businesses can borrow – stands at 6.5% in real terms, the highest level this century, making borrowing costs particularly burdensome for the real economy.
Higher-for-longer real rates are gradually and decisively hurting the U.S. consumer and labor market, according to Hartnett. 
He stressed that global rate cuts are no longer a question of &#8220;if&#8221; or &#8220;when,&#8221; but rather a matter of whether the cuts will be effective. 
&#8220;Big cuts are needed to work,&#8221; he said.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Soft Landing Contingent On Reactions To Lower Interest Rates</h3>
A soft landing for the economy, Hartnett suggested, would depend on whether lower interest rates in the second half of the year can reinvigorate consumer spending and business activity. 
He pointed to key indicators to monitor, such as housing market data and small business sentiment.
According to the analyst, a recovery in mortgage purchases, refinancing activity, and small business sentiment driven by lower interest rates would be a positive indicator.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Sell AI Stocks, Buy Laggards After The First Cut</h3>
Hartnett maintained his stance of &#8220;sell the first cut,&#8221; anticipating that leadership in AI and AI-derivative plays may struggle in the second half until earnings-per-share gains become more visible. 
He recommended that investors &#8220;buy assets strangled by 5% yields&#8221; that could benefit from a decrease in yields to 3-4%.
These assets include government bonds, REITs, small-cap stocks, and distressed emerging markets like Brazil, which could benefit from a weaker dollar. 
Exchange traded funds investing in these assets include the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>), the Vanguard Real Estate ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VNQ#NYSE">VNQ</a>), the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>) and the iShares MSCI Brazil ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWZ#NYSE">EWZ</a>)
He also highlighted potential opportunities in housing markets in countries like the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Sweden, where floating mortgage rates could lead to a quicker transmission of lower rates into increased consumer confidence. 
Finally, Hartnett suggested that global retail stocks could present the best buying opportunity in the event of a &#8220;hard landing&#8221; and a negative payroll print in the coming months, as these stocks, much like REITs, have already priced in a recession.
