Well, it's possible, but anyone can carry a gun (for various reasons - I would say suicide is one of the least popular reason) in Sao Paolo regardless if they're traders. I don't think he purposely carried a gun in anticipation of horrible stock market performances. If anyone, not just traders, who carries a gun, and is going through some dramatic nervous breakdown, it's possible that he/she would shoot him/herself.
