Addendum to #msg-97274632: I would hold off on a commitment to Brazilian stocks or ETFs until after Brazil’s presidential election in October. If a conservative candidate wins (not likely, but possible), investing in Brazilian companies might become tenable. If Rousseff wins re-election, I would stay away (or sell short).
