If you’ve been putting money to work overseas, chances are you’re none to thrilled with Brazil.
“On a 2-year basis Brazil is down 9.5% and the currency is getting weaker,” explains Fast Money trader Tim Seymour.
However, Brazil’s fortunes may be about to change, he says, and as a result Brazil is getting oversold. “What’s setting up is an interesting time to be a Brazil investor,” he says.
But don’t take that as a sign to play mega-caps – those trades haven’t worked well.
Instead, Seymour is bullish on midcaps. “I’m long TSU ,” he says.
Or if you want a basket of names, Steve Grasso suggests looking at EWZS.
