dollar jump
This week the blue dollar and the financials accumulated jumps of up to $18 (9%) and the gaps with the official exceeded 80%. After almost three months of exchange rate pax, the market began to take profits and abandon the “carry trade” operations, due to inflationary pressure, doubts about meeting the goals with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the low accumulation of reserves of the Central Bank (BCRA) in full harvest season.
Between the end of January, after the Government announced the beginning of an understanding with the IMF, and the beginning of April, the MEP dollar and the CCL collapsed more than $40 (more than 20%). In that period, which coincided with a sharp acceleration in prices, many investors poured their money into inflation-linked bonds (CERs) to take advantage of their high yields and then buy “cheap” dollars. In this way, the prices came to pierce $190 and the gaps to be below 70%. However, those numbers seemed to be taken a floor and the trend reversed sharply and is expected to continue along the same lines this week.
