Further enhancing the conviction of marginal buyers was a growing perception that forced index fund liquidation might be close to running its course and that the company would be close to announcing further capex and cost reductions, which happened on Monday. Still high execution risks for the Brazil-Petrobras complex serve to cap the neai tern) upside In our view, while the short-term momentum has improved for the Brazil- Petrobras complex due to the factors listed above, we believe the execution risks for the government to stabilize the fiscal and macro dynamics and for the company to significantly reduce its heavy cash burn and fund tens of USD billions of debt maturities in upcoming years remain important points of concern and serve to cap the near-term upside for Petrobras. Further weakness in the oil price and the BRL are also important risks here. We are thus not fully convinced that Petrobras is embarking on a sustained near-term spread tightening at this point, but rather believe that we will continue to see high price volatility without a clear trend. The fuel price increase announcement helps (by increasing revenue and EBITDA by about 2% and 9%, respectively, or USD1.7bn) but is not enough, in our view, to meaningfully reduce the company's cash burn (of about USD4.5bn per year with capex at USD19bn and Brent at USD50/bbl). Another fuel price increase might prove difficult to achieve in the near term due to political and economic constraints, in our view, as it would be non-accretive to inflation targets and would pose further stress on the already fragile domestic demand.
