Argentina Equity Market

Uncertainty regarding Alberto Fernandez’s possible economic actions, mainly about the relationship with the IMF, possible price controls and external debt management continues. Even so, we believe that, at current prices, certain stocks trade at attractive entry points. Although, we suggest eliminating exposure to utilities, due to higher regulatory risk and possible tariff freezing. Companies with a high percentage of dollar denominated revenues, lower operating exposure to domestic market and low debt levels would act as a hedge in the current scenario.

After the primary elections’ unexpected result, Argentine securities’ prices slumped, pricing a very pessimistic scenario in the medium term. Although, certain stocks are attractive opportunities at current prices. We recommend eliminating exposure to utility companies due to high regulatory risk. Companies with high income in dollars and low debt would have a better relative performance in this scenario.

Argentina Equity Market

Few days remain before the primary elections take place, and volatility is expected to continue in the local market, now also affected by the global context. A positive result for the ruling party could generate a greater rally in stocks, especially in cyclical sectors and in the most undervalued ones. The result is still uncertain, so we recommend having a conservative stance.
