U.S. Support Boosts Argentina’s Financial Markets

NEW YORK/LONDON (Reuters) – Argentina’s financial assets experienced a significant upswing on Wednesday, marking the third consecutive day of gains. This rally follows U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s announcement of substantial support for President Javier Milei’s right-wing administration and the nation’s financial markets.

U.S. Financial Assistance Details

During his remarks, Bessent disclosed that the U.S. is currently in discussions regarding a $20 billion currency swap agreement with Argentina’s central bank. Additionally, he indicated that the U.S. stands ready to purchase Argentina’s dollar-denominated bonds in the secondary market, a move that could lend further stability to the Argentine economy.

Strengthening Commitments Amid Political Turbulence

Bessent emphasized that Argentina possesses the necessary tools to combat those attempting to destabilize its markets for political gain. He noted a noticeable shift towards right-wing governance in Latin America, hinting at the U.S.’s backing of Milei’s policy agenda. Furthermore, he mentioned that many American companies would contemplate investing in Argentina contingent on a favorable outcome in the upcoming elections.

Upcoming Legislative Midterm Elections

Argentina is set to hold legislative midterm elections on October 26, where Milei’s party plans to secure additional seats to bolster its minority presence. Despite experiencing a setback in early September during local elections in Buenos Aires Province, where accusations of corruption surfaced against Milei’s inner circle, the government remains optimistic about its prospects in the national election.

Analysts React to U.S. Support

Investment professionals are expressing astonishment at the level of U.S. support for Argentina, which many believe surpasses prior expectations. Alejo Czerwonko, chief investment officer for emerging markets in the Americas at UBS, stated, “This degree of U.S. support for Argentina was beyond what any analyst could have imagined just a few weeks ago. It stands among the strongest examples of U.S. Treasury backing in the history of emerging markets.”

Market Reactions to Financial News

On the trading front, Argentina’s 2030 bond surged by 3.5 cents to reach 74.78 cents on the dollar. The Global X Argentina stocks ETF saw a 2% increase, propelled by gains in the banking sector. The local stock benchmark also rose by 1.5%, following an earlier spike of 6.6%.

Peso Strengthens Amid Positive Trends

The Argentine peso saw a slight increase, strengthening approximately 2%, which brings its weekly gains against the U.S. dollar to a notable 10%. Analysts are advocating for a policy shift that would enable the central bank to aggressively accumulate international reserves, which they believe would lead to a more flexible currency framework.

Challenges Facing Argentina

Despite the recent positives, bonds had plummeted by as much as 20% in value year-to-date prior to this week, and the local peso was nearing its weaker limit set earlier this year, tied to a $20 billion program endorsed by the International Monetary Fund. In a recent effort to defend its currency, the central bank expended over $1 billion.
