Mauro Mazzaa research analyst at Bull Market Brokers, said that at the current price of the change close to zero, or even negative, with the risks in foreign markets and one month following the mega-issuance of the treasury, “it is very likely that the parallel dollar market is overheated.”
With respect to precio that the blue might have, the expert maintains that it is expected to reach $220/$230 in the medium term, a fact that casts doubt on whether making a rate during the current month is the best option, since, in the event of said increase , will greatly exceed the interest rate added to the fact that it is unlikely that the BCRA will increase it once more, at least in the short term.
What is the price of official dollars
At this time, the dollar currencythe exchange rate that is negotiated in the wholesale market, is priced at $115.73. On the other hand, the official dollar or retail dollar is traded at $120.50, according to information provided by the official website of Banco Nación.
