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.

It would have been traumatic to watch.   I'm sure he knew that much.   It would have been nice of him to do it in private.   Hell, in a bathroom stall.

São Paulo sucks.

Well, no it doesn't.
That is, nothing "sucks".   Good/back, likeable/not likeable, sucky/not sucky -> all artificial attributes.

It sucks all the life from the land, and covers it in sterile unsustainable cancerous grey concrete.
