Diplomacia e Relações Internacionais
Os economistas petistas (se não há nenhuma contradição intrínseca em juntar os dois termos) estão sempre condenando, abjurando, xingando o malvado "capitalismo financeiro", ou a tal de "financeirização" da economia (que eles não sabem muito bem o que seja, mas repetem incansavelmente).
E, no entanto, tanto o ex-chefe, quanto a nova chefa não se cansam de dizer aos especuladores de Wall Street (ou de qualquer outro lugar): "Venham, venham, vocês são bem vindos, podem aproveitar!"
Não sei exatamente o que os eps (for short) estão pensando atualmente, mas eles detestam os americanos. Quem sabe eles não apreciariam capitalistas japoneses?
Eles vão gostar especialmente disto aqui:
"The carry trade made the Brazilian real attractive to the Japanese, who could borrow at 0.1% in Japan and get 12.5% in Brazil."
Quais especuladores sonhariam ganhar tanto em outros mercados? O Brasil é o sonho dos especuladores.
E tudo graças aos economistas petistas.
Eu não disse que eles eram neoliberais?

Are Japanese Investors Right About Brazil?
Forbes Magazine, September 2011
Emerging markets often bottom ahead of the developed markets, and if Japanese investors are right, these ETFs that focus on Brazil may present some interesting investment opportunities.
Recent data from Lipper Financial indicates that in the past two years, Japanese investors have invested more than $100 billion in mutual funds tied to the Brazilian economy. The past few months have been quite hard on these investments, as the move out of higher-risk assets has hurt emerging markets.
The currency markets have not helped. The carry trade made the Brazilian real attractive to the Japanese, who could borrow at 0.1% in Japan and get 12.5% in Brazil.
The recent sharp rise in the yen, and fall in the Brazilian real, has dampened this enthusiasm. The prevailing wisdom is that the yen would have to get much stronger to cause significant unwinding of this position.
The recent rate cut in Brazil caught the markets by surprise, as inflation has risen sharply for the past 12 months. It is hoped that the cut will help the Brazilian economy stay strong as concerns grow over a global economic slowdown.
Often, emerging markets will bottom out ahead of developed markets, so I am closely watching the technical action of the Brazilian markets. The Market Vectors Brazil Small-Cap (BRF) is a $900 million ETF that yields 1.4% and should be more sensitive to an economic turnaround in Brazil. From a low of $42.14 on August 5, BRF has rebounded 27% to a high last week of $53.51.
BRF rallied back last week to its former support, now resistance at line b
There is a band of stronger resistance in the $55-$57 area
The daily RS analysis has risen sharply in the past three weeks, but is still below the key resistance at line c. A convincing move above this level is needed to confirm a bottom
The daily OBV is still below its long-term downtrend, line d, and shows no signs yet of a major bottom The WisdomTree Dreyfus Brazilian Real Fund (BZF) is a $500 million ETF that has an average volume of 140,000. It has an income yield of 5.9%, but paid a distribution of $3.24 in 2010.
The weekly chart shows that BZF has recently come quite close to its weekly support, line f, in the $27 area. The August low was $27.21 There is further support at $25.80, and a weekly close below this level would violate the uptrend The weekly OBV surged to the upside, as volume topped $9 million for one week in June
The daily OBV (not shown) is neutral
There is initial resistance now at $28.30-$28.50 with further in the $29.20-$29.45 area
What it Means: The large commitment to Brazilian markets by Japanese investors is interesting, as they tend to take a long-term view. If you believe that we are starting another recession, then emerging markets are likely to again bottom first. Of course, the emerging markets could go lower first.
Technically, equity ETFs should see a pullback back to the August lows, or lower, before a bottom can be formed.
The WisdomTree Dreyfus Brazilian Real Fund (BZF) does look attractive at current levels, due to its healthy dividend and its closeness to long-term support.
How To Profit: For the WisdomTree Dreyfus Brazilian Real Fund (BZF), go long at $27.48 or better, with a stop at $25.68.
MarketWatch
The carry trade made the Brazilian real attractive to the Japanese, who could borrow at 0.1% in Japan and get 12.5% in Brazil.
