This book successfully navigates potential investors safely through a very large, and largely unknown, South American market: Brazil. For serious investors looking to diversify their volatile portfolios outside of the U.S., Brazil serves up some good opportunities, and the author very methodically gives his opinions on a wide variety of stocks.

I became interested in the gospel according to Fred Fuld III over the past year or so, as his advice pretty much outperformed the world, while most traditional analysts posted significant losses, Mr. Fuld's recommendations were up substantially, even higher than most analysts posted during the good old pre-2000 days.

The author's overall knowledge validated the information he was passing along on the stocks in Brazil, and with his advice, that portion of my portfolio has significantly outperformed the main stream North American holdings.

I'm hoping he'll do other books for some other parts of the world; clearly, we are a part of a global economy, and it would behoove us to gain as much information as possible on what's going on around the rest of the world. His analysis of Brazil was very astute and most appreciated, especially in light of the dismal bear market we're currently suffering through.

I've been reading and seeing increased articles and tv programs about the phenomenal investment opportunities emerging out of Brazil. Until Investing In Brazil Stocks there has not been a single resource for those of us interested in the investment potential in Brazil to compare companies. This book offers a quick, easily understood and complete source to research these companies and a unique opportunity to drill down into all of the Brazillian hoopla.

There are so many global and country-specific pieces of information as well as little nuggets of gold "tid-bits" that really focus on what makes each stock significant. If you are considering any Brazillian stock for your portfolio, you should read this book!

This book is a compact encyclopedia of Brazil's best companies. Reading it made me want to travil down south to see what all the excitement is about!
You can use this book as a starter kit for investing in Brazil that provides you with lots of fundamental data and helpful history. Hopefully, in future editions or publications, Fuld will also give us some more direct investing advice to help us distinguish between the good and the GREAT Brazilian companies.

I question this books credibility. Whereas there is plenty of info on numerous Brazilian corporations, I'm skeptical about what i'm reading when I find so many grammatical and spelling errors. The lack of dilligence by the editor/publisher tarnishes the credibility of the book. I'm not an English major, but I certainly could've done a better job editing this book.
I have to stop buying books online.
