After a brutal year watching money drain from equity funds, Brazilian investors are making a bold bet on a comeback. The irony? While locals were pulling cash out of stocks, international players kept piling in—pushing the benchmark index to record highs. Now, as sentiment shifts, domestic investors are eyeing equities again, betting this disconnect between local and foreign money flows is about to flip. It's a classic case of local investors catching up to what foreigners already priced in. The question is whether this renewed interest signals genuine market confidence or just fear of missing out on further gains.

International funds have been exhausted. Is it our turn now?

Are Brazilians bottom-fishing or chasing highs this time? They're terrified to death.

Foreign capital keeps buying, and only then do local investors realize... Isn't this just the fate of retail investors?

Domestic funds are about to chase higher again. It's hard to say whether this wave can be caught.

Old-timer, I see this pattern and it looks familiar... Local retail investors get their fingers burned and then want to jump in again, while big foreign funds have already finished eating and are still smacking their lips [Dog Head] --- It's the same trick again. By the time we react, they've already laid out the chips. Whether you take the plunge or not depends entirely on you. --- I used to think the same way back then, but all I can say is—don’t ask, because asking just teaches you a lesson. --- Is this wave really coming, or is it just another harvest? Seeing the determined silhouette of international funds, I can't help but feel a bit apprehensive. --- Local investors have awakened, for sure, but could this be the last invitation from smart money to us? --- That’s how it was done during the bear market year. When the rebound comes, you'll regret it. We retail investors are always chasing after others’ tails. --- Is this time different? I bet five bucks it’s not [Manual Dog Head]
