Argentine Markets Fall Without Wall Street Guidance on Juneteenth
Argentine stocks and bonds retreated during an unusual trading session on Friday, June 19, 2026, as Wall Street remained closed for the Juneteenth federal holiday. Without external reference points, the S&P Merval index dropped 1.9% to 3,270,336.53 points, while dollar-denominated bonds also posted losses. Banking stocks led the decline, and geopolitical uncertainty added pressure to an already complex week.
