Stopping the rally after the postponement of payments to the IMF: Argentine bonds fell up to 5% and shares sank more than 4%
Argentine stocks and bonds began yesterday’s session with a marked drop, which ended the bullish streak they had been exhibiting in recent weeks. The drop occurs simultaneously with a loss in global stock markets and is enhanced by local uncertainty.
The data showed reversals of more than 5% in bonds on this day. The most marked loss is for the AL29, which fell 5.6%, while the Global 35 fell 4.1% and the AL30, which until now had been the star of the year, sank 5.4%. This brought the country risk back above 2,000 points, to 2,053.
The losing streak also hit stocks with the Merval down 4.4% and marked falls for Argentine stocks listed on Wall Street. In a panel mostly in red, the worst part is borne by the banks: the Supervielle fell 9.9%; Galicia, 7.6% and Macro, 7.5%. Mercado Libre also lost 7.5% and YPF, 7.1%. Read more.
