“Sovereign bonds in dollars lose 15% since the September primaries (STEP). The news about the result of the elections and the comments on the potential agreement with the IMF were not enough to boost the price of these assets”, said Paula Gándara, head of portfolio management at AdCap Asset Management.
“Only strong advances will determine the improvement in the prices of these bonds (…) The rumors of exchange splitting negatively affected the (financial) products that offer coverage against devaluation”, added.
