Argentine President Javier Milei has been suffering a series of setbacks this week after the Lower House overturned his veto of the Disability Emergency Law, followed by a slumping trade surplus projection and a sharp drop in wholesale transactions amid mounting corruption scandals.
Argentina had a trade surplus of US$ 314 million in September, official statistics agency Indec said on Tuesday, the first since December 2016 and an early sign the devaluation of the peso currency has benefited the country’s exporters.
Argentina's trade surplus rose to 1.64 billion dollars in August, more than double the surplus in the same month a year ago achieving the twelve months target four months ahead, President Cristina Fernandez announced on Thursday.
