The blue dollar hit
a new floor of $ 146 on
Thursday
, a fall of $ 3 and its lowest value since November 1.
Meanwhile, the dollars that can be acquired through the Stock Market are already cheaper than the savings dollar that is bought in banks.
The MEP or Stock Exchange dollar - which is obtained by buying bonds in pesos and selling them in dollars - rises 0.5%, to $ 140.20, while the cash with liquid (which is used to extract the country's currencies) advances 0, 3%, at $ 143.20.
But, despite these increases, they are
below the $ 144 that the savings dollar is paid.
The blue maintains the bearish streak that started on November 17 and is located at the
$ 149 floor that it touched a month ago.
With this price,
the gap with respect to the official dollar reaches 78%
, far from the 150% it reached at the end of October.
In the official market, the wholesale dollar, where banks and large companies operate, rises 0.10%, to $ 82.14.
At the retail level it sells for $ 87.37.
On Wednesday, the Central Bank managed to buy about
$ 50 million.
