This Tuesday, the Government will have

two tests

that will tell it if the latest measures adopted to contain the loss of dollars in international reserves pointed in the right direction.

In the first place, the reduction of withholdings on soybeans and its by-products begins, a decision that seeks that agro-exporters liquidate their currencies before they increase again, in the following months (it is estimated that they could liquidate about US $ 3,500 million until the end of year).

Secondly, the issuance of the first bond tied to the dollar of the Alberto era, with which it is sought to tempt those same agro-exporters to decide to exchange their beans for pesos.

At the start of the market the exporters

did not appear

.

The official wholesale dollar, where banks and companies operate, rose 12 cents to $ 77.13, but the Central Bank went out to sell again and managed to lower it to $ 77.07.

The Central Bank changed its intervention pattern by breaking with the routine of setting a sell position at the opening, a price that guides the market.

The blue dollar

rises from $ 150 to $ 152

, and the

cash with liquid

, the dollar that is obtained through stock market operations and allows foreign currency to be drawn from the country,

advances 1.8%, to $ 152.25.

It had closed on Tuesday at $ 149.5, with an advance of 2.6% and after the intervention of the Anses in the market with the sale of bonds.

The MEP dollar, for its part, shows a rise of 1.2%, to $ 142.54.

Thus, the gap between the dollar counted with liquid and the wholesale official

rises to almost 97%.


On the other hand,

country risk rises 2.6%, to 1,381 basis

 points, as a result of the rise in bonds that are traded abroad.

Argentine shares in New York are mostly trading higher, although there are slight declines.

The increases reach 7%, as is the case of Despegar.
