Steve K.,
Howdy! (As far as I can tell, 32% decline not 50%)

You stated that "1 Real in July was worth $1.17"
No, 1.17 Real was worth $1.00 US

Around July 20th 1 real was worth $0.8618 US$ (1.16 Real=1.0 Dollar)
Yesterday 1 real was worth $0.588 US$ (1.70 Real=1.0 Dollar)

That would be approx 32% decline .588/.8618 (.682)

The quote on the Bovespa yesterday was RCTB40 @112.00 Reals
112/1.70=65.88 versus July rate 112/1.16=96.55 65.88/96.55=.682
