Domingo Brief — Buying Into the World's Fastest Economy

Welcome back to the Domingo Brief! A **Caribbean president** walked off with free equity in the world's fastest-growing economy, while a **defaulted petrostate** finally opened the biggest sovereign restructuring ever attempted. A state oil giant pulled in $2B to keep operating, 70 years of domestic sugar quietly ended, and a major bank's profit halved on the worst farm-default cycle in over a decade. Plus: one Central American economy just posted its hottest export quarter in years.

Each Sunday issue of the Domingo Brief curates the most important stories shaping Latin America — economics, politics, business, and markets — with original Latinometrics data analysis on every story, plus venture-capital and startup funding updates, a trivia question, and curated reading picks sourced from the best local and international outlets.
