Brazil problems - the Asian flue has now spread to South America and Eastern Europe. Who is next?

LONDON, Dec 4 ( Reuters ) - Brazil faces serious difficulties
that have begun to threaten its economic stability as confidence
in its anti-inflation programme ebbs, Moody's Investors Service
said on Thursday.
While the ceiling on Brazil's sovereign ratings was not yet
compromised, the New York-based credit rating agency said
further pressure on the real was likely.
"Among the most serious difficulties are its overvalued
currency, its huge current account deficit, the delays in
implementing vital adjustments and structural reform policies,"
Moody's said in a report.
