    Brasil Telecom: Up 7% or down 4%? [view article]
    Well.. It dropped again Wednesday... I figure you're over-thinking these actions... Looks to me it's just bouncing around as good and bad news comes out of the US Congress.. Until the House votes, there is no trend and there is only volatility. Come Friday, you'll know whether you should have bought today, or sold everything you own today. I sincerely hope Dubya carries some smidgen of credibility with his own Party, otherwise Wall Streeters will be tumbling from the sky. Didn't he say at one time that he had a 'mandate from the American people'.... Nah!... He couldn't possibly string that many words together without stuttering.

    TNE at $17 appears very cheap to me. Is it time to buy? Reply

    CEL has inconsistent dividends, paid one of $2.10 in March. Was this a one-time divy? Reply

    Nice to see Cellcom high on the list. I am less bullish on Telco's.. they seem to be having a very hard time increasing wallet share.
    Internet surfing from the phone is proving a flop and people are talking all they want to, texting all they want to and paying a fixed price. Competition is huge, moving operators easy (since the number migration law)..
    Technicals isn't everything.. it shows the past, not future.
    Cheers.

    Brazilian Telecom Going Monopolistic [view article]
    Yes. The lion hearted must also move quickly. In the mail, as a holder of BTM, shortly after writing the article, I received what appeared to be a tender offer for my BTM shares. It was quite lengthy and did not have time to read the details and/or ensure that my shares would be bought out (although the offer did appear that way). Anyway, with BTM not moving up or down much, and TNE going down way more than appears reasonable, I decided to exit BTM more or less at my entry point. (I hope I do not regret that as the $42 buyout would have been a clear profit). I did this because TNE appeared to be going down so low and fast that I wanted dry powder. Now at 22/sh, it is way lower than I thought it would go and I need to see whether any real reason supports its decline or whether it simply is an irrational market making it an even better buying opportunity than I earlier thought it was. I am also keeping an eye on commodities and drybulk shipping. Again, unlike the more diversified American economy, Brazil is a commodity driven country. It makes no sense for its stocks to be going down right now. Do your own due diligence, but I think that after the American presidential election and position on Iraq and interest rates becomes more clear (not necessarily better, just more clear), larger amounts of money will start pouring into the market again. And again, due to commodities, Brazil's economy should be one of those that rises more quickly than others. Meanwhile, I am frustrated that things aren't moving in that direction a bit more quickly. Everyone should do their own due diligence, and these are just my personal opinions, but right now I believe cash and/or commodities are king... Hopefully, we'll see a bit of move up on Monday, I will continue to watch TNE for a bottom now (and would appreciate any technical support anyone else can provide as I almost bought into last week and now am perplexed as I never would have thought it would go down to 22/sh). Of course, one advantage to staying out of an irrational market is that it is less likely to drive you crazy. I think I'm good at spotting trends, but again, I'd appreciate it if someone with some technical skills would suggest support levels for TNE. Thanks. Reply

    How about a more diversified approach with the iShares Brazil ETF (ticker EWZ)? We added it to our portfolio back in May 2007 and since then its up 65%. Reply

    Is Brazil 'Investment-Grade' for Individual Investors? [view article]
    i think brasil is lucky to have a good president as Lula. I am very sad that my country Argentina has such an inept politics that can“t take advantag of the big prices in commodities today it is a shame.
    About investing i think that martin is right latin american countries are probably if no the most dangerous to get into because of their lack of stability so i think the only ones that get away with it are big companies that get their back from local governments.
