Brasileiro
9.2 billion dollars of direct investment in February. This number makes Brazil the second largest recipient of productive investments in the world in February. Only behind China which is the first.

Brasileiro, your statement NOT entirely correct ; A good part of the US$ 9.2 billion, is made up of investment in financial funds - not “production”, investments in the Stock market - speculation, not “production” ; Do you know how much actually went into “production” ? (i.e., new factories, new businesses, which supply jobs..).
So don't get so excited. Suggest you study a bit about the consequences - both good, AND bad - of the various types of investments, just to see WHO is benefited at the end of the day...
When will you learn that positive investment (in Brazil) cannot exclude infrastructure and education ?? and, which should be coming from BRAZIL's government, not from abroad. Wake up !!!
