    Brazilian economy overtakes UK's, says CEBR
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-16332115

    Brazil has overtaken the UK as the world's sixth largest economy, an economic research group has said.

    The Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR) said its latest World Economic League Table showed Asian countries moving up and European countries falling back.
     
  2. When you build your economy and future on bullshit like the capital market industry you can't really be serious to last forever.. This is utopia. Good job to Brazil.
     
  3. Thank God/Jesus/Buddah/Allah/The Pope for commodity inflation too. :cool:
     
  4. Brazil has lots of more economic resources than Britain. It was meant to happen any day in history.

    Without its massive empire the small island is virtually nothing. They have failed to make many changes in their economy and society and that's why they don’t look too European now. Germany, France, Sweden, Switzerland, Finland and Norway lead the way.

    Brazil on the other hand has to educate its people, reduce income inequality and it could become an economic power to be reckoned with.
