Brazil is wonderful and I am very bullish on commodities. These two are commodity countries, but Brazil is normally not a very well-managed country and their new government is making many mistakes and of course the market there was very high.
All emerging markets ran up a lot in 2009 and 2010 and that is why I started shorting emerging markets, mainly on price because most of them just went up too much.
