One to watch: the dollar on 10 December
As this issue went to press, Argentina was on the cusp of a major political transition. In a second round run-off ballot on 22 November the pro-government presidential candidate Daniel Scioli is due to face the opposition’s man, Mauricio Macri, who the latest opinion poll say is ahead in the race. Whoever wins will take office on 10 December. And on that day all eyes will be on the peso-dollar exchange rate. There could be a mega-devaluation. Or not. Here we explain some of the options facing the new Argentine president.
