Turkey’s central bank cuts benchmark rate by 50 basis points in a move that defied economists’ expectations

The bank said it had decided on a “measured cut” in the benchmark in the light of “declining commodity prices, in particular oil prices”. Insisting it would retain a “cautious approach in monetary policy” to bring about a lasting reduction in inflation, it anticipated that inflation would fall close to its target of 5 per cent this year. This compares with the views of many economists, who expect inflation to end 2015 at at least 6 per cent.

Why Brazil will turn the corner and will come on top.

Not because the people there will get more clever better educated or less inefficient.

Take food for instance: The Middle East ad Africa arid areas, had Arab Spring in several countries not because they wanted democracy. It was because food was taking a high and higher % of their income.

To appease these populaces these governments need to buy food.

Europe is running out of cash and pretty soon will have less cash to subsidize their loss making farmers.

New agriculture frontiers? Look to Ukraine!

China, is becoming a consumers’ economy. They will eat more and better. More imports from Brazil.

Granted we need better infrastructure. But not much PhDs to produce food.

Oil is getting cheaper. Better for the farming sector.

It will because the set of circumstances will favor brazil in the next 5 years.
