I know, I realized it after sending the note. I used the cds carry in the denominator to calculate percentage move and then
again at denominator to calculate the ratio. That was the mistake. The ratio for cds should actually be (320-
205)x5/205=2.8x.
The ratio for fx trade should still be 2x.

I did a bit of thinking on this. USDBRL moved from 2.64 to 3.27, a 24% move from the date we put the CDS trade on. At
that date, USDBRL had a negative carry of about 12%, so the return on annualized carry was about 2x.
Many drivers led us to the CDS expression, particularly the fact that the problems in brazil would cause deterioration of
credit fundamentals. The key driver was the low carry... about 200bps per year...
CDS moved from 205 to 320, a 56% move and the return on annualized carry was about 23x.
So to look at CDS and the fact it moved 56% and BRL moved 24% isn't enough. We gotta factor in the cost of holding
the trade versus the return, which should lead to a comparison of 23x versus 2x.
