Brazil: the light at the end of the tunnel?

Does anyone see a potential PM rally if Brazil's problems escalate? Of course, its political problems are pretty minute for now, but if they are an indication of a deeper instability, it's possible that the Brazilian Real decreases in value. That also wouldn't normally mean much for any random country, but Brazil is an economic powerhouse with a lot of capital going into its market. Should that capital leave.. would investors rush to put money in silver/gold?

Just curious, and willing to listen to peoples' takes.

    My take is that Brazil has no affect on PM prices.

    Brazil benefited from the global carry trade. If that trade continues to unwind due to higher interest rates which coupled with a global slowdown will only push more investors into US dollars.
