EMERGING MARKETS-Brazil's real hits 6-week low as trade tensions intensify
* Petrobras posts its highest-ever quarterly profit * Latin American currencies suffer worst day in 2019 * Brazil's real weakens to lowest level in six weeks (Updates prices, adds analyst comment) By Sruthi Shankar Aug 2 (Reuters) - Brazil's real hit a six-week low on Friday, leading losses among Latin American currencies as an escalation in U.S.-China trade tensions turned investors risk-averse, although upbeat production numbers from oil firm Petrobras lifted Sao Paulo- listed shares. The MSCI index of Latin American currencies extended its slide for a second day and was on course to post its worst week of 2019 after U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday vowed to hike tariffs on Chinese imports starting on Sept. 1, prompting retaliation from Beijing.

Brazilian state-run oil company Petroleo Brasileiro SA, or Petrobras, posted a long-awaited production boost in July after a disappointing June, as it ramped up production in the promising offshore "pre-salt" region. In a presentation to discuss quarterly results, Petrobras said it produced 2.76 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd) in the month, up from 2.633 million in the second quarter. Last week, Petrobras posted lackluster second-quarter production figures and cut its 2019 guidance to 2.7 million boepd from 2.8 million, disappointing investors hungry for a long-promised production boost.

EMERGING MARKETS-Latam forex falls as investors avoid riskier assets on trade fears
* Petrobras posts its highest ever quarterly profit * Latin American currencies worst day in 2019 * EM stocks on biggest slide since December 2015 By Agamoni Ghosh Aug 2 (Reuters) - Latin American currencies fell on Friday as U.S.-China trade tensions pulled investors away from riskier assets, but a smashing quarter from Brazilian state-run oil firm Petrobras helped Brazil stocks outperform regional indices. U.S. President Donald Trump vowed to hike tariffs on Chinese imports starting on Sept. 1 on Thursday, a day after negotiators from both countries concluded a meeting in Shanghai without significant signs of progress to end a trade war. Emerging market assets, already reeling from the U.S. Federal Reserve's hawkish rate-cut outlook earlier this week, fell to near two-month lows, with Latin American currencies on course to post their worst week for 2019.
