Domingo Brief — The Vorcaro Tapes

Welcome back to the Domingo Brief! **Leaked audio**, a **fugitive banker**, and a $24M biopic, all tangling a presidential challenger. A 30-year mining run ends in a $277M tab no one expects to collect, and a six-year diplomatic freeze cracks open on a stock market up 260% this year. Plus: a state oil major files the biggest investment plan in its country's history, an Andean capital uses AI to unlock $20B in stalled mining permits, and a 37-minute commute does what a decade of freeway projects could not.

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.
