Brazil’s auto industry trade group Anfavea has slashed its forecast for 2019 vehicle production growth to a modest 2.1% from 9% previously, it said on Monday. Anfavea had big plans this year for Brazil’s auto industry, which has been slowly recovering from a significant slump. Read full article

    How things come back to bite you: Right-wing president Jair Bolsonaro is not getting any help from his best pal, Mauricio Macri, who has destroyed the Argentines' purchase power capacity.

    May this help Brazil to know who elect next time around.

    Ask the great unwashed 14.8 million if they can afford a car, if they don't get off their arses they will never afford one.Speak next year when Fernandez leads Argentina into default once again after ripping the population off as dear old Cristina did.You are a down and out communist, good concept but will never work as human nature wants more.

    Feeling the pain of defeat?

    Well, sure it's a pity you bet the wrong horse -- even if I told you so four years ago!

    Speak next year?

    Sure! But I told you four years ago who Macri was (is) and what he was going to do to the Argentines. But you, and all your pals blinded by ideology, chose to become Macri cheerleaders.

    Wrong choice, pal.

    Does not concern me personally, just feeling sorry for the majority og Argentines having to live through more years of Kircherism. No doubt Argentina will default under the next government.Actually I know loads of Argentines who feel that this is the end for Argentina when the Fernandezs come to power.

    Kamerad/Komrade, as always, I look forward to “your country” getting exactly what you deserve... :)

    Again, you are way behind the latest events. Argentina was technically in default, although the government did not say it, when president Macri called in the IMF -- he panicked when seeing the government had run out of money to service the debt with private investors in October 2018. How the 'technical default' ended? By pushing ahead repayment dates, meaning leaving the task to the next government.

    GC: “I know loads of Argentines who feel that this is the end for Argentina when the Fernandezs come to power.”

    Many feel Argentina is already at the end of the rope. They are the majority that will soon end the sad four-year experience and begin a new time.

    REF: “Many feel Argentina is already at the end of the rope. They are the majority”:

    Argentina is so accustomed to being hung at the end of the rope, that they'ill disbelieve in any fantasy of any good news!

    “just feeling sorry for the majority og Argentines having to live through more years of Kircherism.”

    Again, GC unmasks himself. He is quick to talk about “years of Kirchnerism” but he has so far avoided writing a single word about current president Macri, who is about to complete his four-year term. No sir -- when it's time to comment, for example, on the huge foreign debt that under the current administration has ballooned, then it's “the Argentines.” When it's time to comment about the past CFK administration, then it's “Cristina.”

    No bias there, of course!

    - Just ONE - automobile - industry?
    - What else can one expect besides the whimpering of one who is a habitual beggar while the other is yearning to be one?
