The dollar bonds of the Argentine debt had been trading at a minimum and this Friday, after the announcement by President Alberto Fernández to get off a possible candidacy for re-election, they jumped up to 3.5% on Wall Street.

Inflation without a ceiling: if it came out today, how much would the $2,000 bill announced in February be worth?
On February 2 of this year, the Central Bank officially reported that the machinery was starting up so that
the $2,000 bill would hit the streets in June or at the latest in July
.

Together for Change asks Massa for an explanation: "They burn the bonds of the Argentines for holding back the dollar for a while"
In the midst of the exchange tension, with a record price of the blue dollar, a group of deputies from Juntos por el Cambio presented a request for information so that the Minister of Economy, Sergio Massa, and the president of the Central Bank, Miguel Angel Pesce, render accounts on the
intervention of the debt market in dollars
that took place this Wednesday.
Federico Angelini, deputy and acting president of the PRO, told Clarín that the suspicion is that the government carried out large massive sales "destroying the value of the bonds, with the sole objective of marking a price of the MEP dollar at closing and the cash with settlement lower than that negotiated during the wheel".
