Just as we warned last night was indicated by the Japanese market's Brazil ETFs, so the IBOVESPA has opened down over 6% this morning on very heavy volume following the 'disappointing for the bulls' electionvictory of Dilma Rousseff. Despite her associations with Petrobras (which may have suggested it bounced), the favorite Jim Chanos short is being crushed, down 14% at the open. The Real is tumbling too, breaking above 2.54 to its weakest against the USD since Dec 2008.
