The official dollar is trading at $1,390 while the blue dollar stands at $1,425 in the informal market as of February 24.
The current value of the official dollar is pegged at $1,390 for selling on February 24, as reported by Banco NaciΓ³n. On the other hand, the blue dollar, traded in the informal market, is now valued at $1,425 after experiencing a decline of five pesos at the start of the week. This ongoing coverage by ClarΓn provides real-time updates on the exchanges as they fluctuate throughout the day.
In the past few weeks, the dollar has been declining significantly, particularly in the wholesale market where it hit a five-month low. The fall is attributed to a substantial increase in supply paired with a demand that has been subdued due to high-interest rates. As a result, February has seen the dollar lose $75 in banks, marking a rare period where the peso is one of the best-performing emerging currencies in 2026, amid discussions of a potential 'super peso' returning to the economic forefront.
This moment of currency fluctuation and decline raises questions about the sustainability of these trends in the coming weeks and months. Analysts are closely monitoring these developments as they may have broader implications on the Argentine economy, impacting everything from inflation rates to consumer confidence, while engaging the public's attention with minute-by-minute updates on the current dollar values.
