B3 profit rises 10% in the 3rd tri, and business away from the platform is already worth half the revenue

B3, Brazil's principal exchange operator, reported a 10% rise in profit in the third quarter, with revenue from businesses outside its core trading platform now reaching roughly half of total revenue. The shift matters for markets because it signals a diversification of earnings away from trading volumes, which tend to be cyclical and sensitive to investor risk appetite and local interest-rate expectations. A revenue base increasingly built on services such as listings, data, clearing, custody and financial infrastructure tends to be less exposed to swings in equity turnover, which can support steadier earnings even when Brazilian trading activity softens. The most directly exposed instruments are Brazilian equities, particularly B3's own shares and other domestic financials, where investors will reassess how much of the company's valuation rests on volume-driven income versus recurring fee streams. The next data point to watch is B3's monthly trading volume and derivatives open-interest figures, which will indicate whether the diversification is offsetting any slowdown in core activity.

HIGH-impact news is typically a market-moving event with multi-pip or multi-percent intraday reactions. Examples include central bank rate decisions, major CPI/NFP releases, geopolitical shocks, mega-cap earnings beats/misses, and regulatory announcements. Traders typically position-reduce or hedge ahead of scheduled HIGH-impact events, and follow the wire in real time to react to unscheduled ones (war headlines, central-bank emergency statements, surprise corporate actions). The Trading News Terminal squawk box reads every HIGH-impact headline aloud the moment it hits the wire — so active traders don't have to stare at the feed.

Active traders typically follow a three-step workflow when a market-moving headline hits the wire: (1) read the headline on the terminal or hear it on the squawk box; (2) assess whether the news is already priced in (by checking intraday price action in the seconds before) or whether it's genuinely new information; (3) act — either entering a breakout position, fading an overreaction, or tightening stops on existing trades. Trading News Terminal's Pro plan delivers wire-grade headlines within seconds of the source, with automatic audio squawk on every HIGH-impact event, so the read-assess-act cycle never waits on a refresh button.
