Although the Government strives to "give certainty" to the market, investors mistrust the signals and the prices of dollarized debt move more due to external stimuli than official announcements.

After the Central Bank ended up buying much less than the US$ 200 million announced by the Ministry of Economy on Tuesday, dollar bonds resumed their downward path.

The discussion that the ruling party is having - headed by

Gabriel Rubinstein

, Sergio Massa's deputy minister - and the opposition about the "bomb" that the debt in pesos means for the next government does not help either.

The one who picked up the glove is Sebastián Galmarini, director of Banco Provincia, leader of the Frente Renovador and brother-in-law of the Minister of Economy.

"They are playing with fire," warned the Buenos Aires official from the Renewal Front, continuing the igneous saga.

"We should not stumble over the same stone," concluded the Buenos Aires leader who was one of the few who came out to cross JxC.
