As for what may happen in December, the economist Federico Glustein, in dialogue with Ámbito, considered that “the blue dollar, if there is no strange movement, will remain close to the price of the MEP, which today both are around at $ 200 “.

“Having passed the elections where the blue seemed to grow at an accelerated rate and very far from MEP, at almost $ 30 of gap, the path of the blue seems to be more tied to stability with slight movements due to the demand of travelers, dollarization of bonuses and portfolios as a precaution, “said the specialist.
