Brazil sold the crown aerospace jewels, Embraer, to Big Air. A cast of 12 Brazilian executives would report to two from Big Air which would control 80% of the outfit.  The offer was $4 billion plus the assumption of liabilities.

Not sure what the folks at Brandes know but they own 14% adding 5 million shares in the quarter.
