BoP main components are Current account and Capital account.

We need to explain to the crowds here that BoP imbalance caused by an inflow of capital. Making a deficit not bad, but a good thing.

Yes that capital spreading more evenly I keep talking about, it causes capital account to go negative and affects the BoP.

That because carmakers, oil, steel, telecoms, energy investments flowing into Brazilian economy.

Current account goes negative reflecting the strong BRL which makes Brazilians travel more abroad and import like mad.

And as I keep saying here: Any macroeconomic statement is not reality. It provides units of measurements for us to ask hard questions. Only new students of economics take macroeconomics as the truth.
