I did take on a few shares in Brazilian oil company stock, PBR. Added a bit more yesterday, and a tad today. Also to the preferred.

Petrobras says it ranks number 11 out of US and Latin America and Spanish companies based on EBITDA for years 2002 and 2003.

1. GE $37.5 Billion
2. Exxon Mobil
3. General Motors
4. ConocoPhilips
5. Verizon Comm.
6. Altria
7. Chevron Texaco
8. Wal Mart
9. Telefonica
10. IBM $14.8B
11. Petrobras $14.3B
12. SBS Comm. $14.3B
13. Intel $12.6B
14. Microsoft
15. Johnson & Johnson $11.8B

Not so sure this is a great metric, but it does show me that Petrobras is a bigger, more profitable (operating performance) company than I would have guessed if I had not seen some of these comparisons.

Relatively low p/e (per Yahoo) attracts.
