Back To The Right...For Now

The political pendulum has swung back and forth in Latin America for decades, from dictators of the right to dictators on the left, from far right to far left and then to moderate right and moderate left. The steady movement toward the middle political area suggests stability in the not-too-distant future. At present, the swing is to the moderate conservatives, who have a large problem haunting them and their opposition left: corruption. As economies have slowed, the citizens have turned against corruption. As corruption is brought under control and as moderates of both the left and the right enter politics, the continent will start moving toward long-term stability. Even with the seeming mess that is the political and economic reality in much of the continent, is this the time to think about investing there again?
