Watching Companies With Argentina Exposure; 7.4 Magnitude Earthquake 219km S Of Ushuaia, Argentina

On April 24, 2025, iShares MSCI Argentina and Global Exposure ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARGT#NYSE">ARGT</a>) dashed ahead of leading indices, making even the S&amp;P 500 and the popular iShares MSCI Emerging Index Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EEM#NYSE">EEM</a>) nervously trying to catch up.

As reported by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/eric-balchunas">Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas</a>, ARGT closed at $42.35, a steep 3.5% daily advance from its earlier close of $40.90. In comparison, the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) rose just 0.5% to $498.12, and the Emerging Markets ETF, a broader indicator of emerging countries, managed a 1.2% gain, closing at $43.70.

So, what&#8217;s driving this Latin rally? Argentina&#8217;s recent move to relax long-standing currency controls has ignited investor enthusiasm. The government&#8217;s action was an appreciated tango step toward liberalization, drawing capital inflows and prompting a surge in equity demand, Blockchain News <a href="https://blockchain.news/flashnews/argentina-etf-outperforms-spy-and-emerging-markets-a-trading-analysis">said</a>.

ARGT Vs EEM: Apples And Empanadas
While EEM provides diversified exposure across nations such as China, India, Brazil and South Korea, ARGT is far more focused, following the MSCI All Argentina 25/50 Index, which concentrates on the top 20 Argentine firms. That makes ARGT riskier but also more responsive to domestic economic reform, a risk and an opportunity. ARGT places a heavy weight on local players like MercadoLibre (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MELI#NASDAQ">MELI</a>), YPF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/YPF#NYSE">YPF</a>), and Grupo Financiero Galicia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GGAL#NASDAQ">GGAL</a>), giving it a high beta.
EEM, on the other hand, leans toward Chinese tech giants like Tencent (OTCPK: TCEHY) and Alibaba (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>), as well as those from South Korea and India. This insulates the fund from country-specific shocks. But as a tradeoff, the upside is less explosive when a single market surges.
Additionally, ARGT levies a bit higher fee of 59 basis points compared to EEM&#8217;s 68 bps but provides a more focused bet on a single recovering market.
For those with a taste for measured risk and a preference for macro-fueled momentum, ARGT may be the spicier dish to try. As EEM continues to offer a well-balanced, globally diversified option, ARGT&#8217;s high-conviction exposure to Argentina&#8217;s liberalizing economy offers a high-reward option, along with a side of risk. As Buenos Aires opens the throttle and investor enthusiasm warms up, ARGT may remain a popular choice.

ARGT Vs EEM: Why Argentina's Focused ETF Is Gaining The Edge

Argentina has clinched $42bn in medium-term funding from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and two other financial institutions as it announced it is abandoning most of its tight currency controls.

Telecom Argentina Stet - France Telecom S.A.

Shares of US-listed Argentine stocks are trading higher after Argentina received IMF funding and eased FX controls.

The World Bank's Global Economic Prospects report, released Thursday, highlights a fragile outlook as inflation, trade disruptions, geopolitical tensions and policy uncertainty weigh on momentum.
The global economy is expected to stay stuck at 2.7% growth in 2025-&#8217;26, a pace too weak to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">drive real economic progress.</a>
Emerging markets, which power 60% of global expansion, are no longer closing the gap with advanced economies as quickly as they once did. 
Yet, some are bucking the trend, with a few poised to grow above 5%, offering rare opportunities for investors in an otherwise sluggish environment.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Argentina's Rebound Under Milei's Reforms</h1>
Argentina's economy is staging a comeback, with GDP expected to expand 5% in 2025 and 4.7% in 2026. This sharp rebound follows two years of contraction, driven by a steep currency devaluation and trade imbalances.
"Argentina has seen significant improvements in activity in commodity-related sectors, including agriculture, energy and mining," the World Bank said in its report. The country's trade surplus has also grown, helped by a sharp drop in imports following the peso's depreciation.
President Javier Milei's sweeping economic reforms — focused on slashing government spending, deregulating industries, and stabilizing inflation — are beginning to take hold.
Investor confidence is returning, fueling a 78% surge in the Global X Argentina ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARGT#NYSE">ARGT</a>) over the past year. 
The fund has already attracted more than $700 million in inflows since mid-January 2024.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Indonesia: Stable Growth At 5.1%</h1>
Indonesia, Southeast Asia's largest economy, is expected to grow 5.1% in 2025, supported by strong domestic consumption and exports of palm oil, coal, and other commodities.
Despite solid economic growth, the iShares MSCI Indonesia ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EIDO#NYSE">EIDO</a>) has struggled, posting a 14% decline over the past year. 
This weakness reflects concerns over global commodity demand and capital outflows from emerging markets.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Philippines: A 6.1% Expansion Fueled By Services</h1>
The Philippines is on track for 6.1% GDP growth in 2025, according to the World Bank. This growth is fueled by its booming services sector, particularly business process outsourcing and remittances from overseas workers. 
Government-backed infrastructure spending is also providing a lift.
Yet, the iShares MSCI Philippines ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EPHE#NYSE">EPHE</a>) has underperformed, slipping 4.6% in the past year. 
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Vietnam's Manufacturing Strength</h1>
Vietnam is expected to be one of the fastest-growing economies in 2025, with a projected 6.6% expansion. 
"Vietnam's growth spell was both transformative and inclusive," the World Bank said, noting the country ranks among the top emerging markets in achieving sustainable development goals.
The manufacturing sector remains the backbone of Vietnam's economy, benefiting from foreign direct investment and a shift in global supply chains away from China. 
However, the VanEck Vietnam ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VNM#NYSE">VNM</a>) has struggled, dropping 11% over the past year, reflecting broader volatility in emerging markets and China&#8217;s economic slowdown.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">India: The Growth Powerhouse</h1>
India, the world's fastest-growing major economy, is expected to expand 6.7% in 2025. Though slower than the 8.2% growth recorded in 2023, the country's economic engine remains strong, powered by resilient consumer spending and steady services activity.
Higher inflation and slower credit expansion have dampened urban consumption, but long-term fundamentals remain intact. 
The iShares MSCI India ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INDA#BATS">INDA</a>) gained 4% over the past year, outperforming many other emerging market funds.
Investors continue to back India's growth story, with over $800 million of inflows over the past year.

Five Emerging Economies Poised For 5% Growth In 2025: Should You Buy These ETFs?

Javier Milei took office as the President of Argentina in December 2023 and took his trademark chainsaw to the country's economic policies. Interest in several Argentina-based stocks has been rising as his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42513867/elon-musk-praises-argentinas-31-spending-cuts-under-milei-but-what-about-the-recession">drastic reforms take hold. </a>
What To Know: Milei, a self-described anarcho-capitalist, has implemented significant economic reforms since he took office almost exactly one year ago. He cut spending on government programs, including healthcare, welfare, and education, substantially and dismissed more than 30,000 government employees. 
Argentina's monthly rate of inflation has come down from 25% in December 2023 to 2.4% in December 2024 and the country achieved a fiscal surplus for the first time in 15 years.&nbsp;

While Milei&#8217;s policies have reduced inflation and boosted market performance, they have also led to increased poverty and unemployment rates, with significant challenges for the working class. However, a Gallup poll conducted at the one-year mark of Milei&#8217;s presidency shows his personal approval rating at 48%. 
Businesses in Argentina appear to be thriving under Milei's administration, with the country's stock market, as measured by the S&amp;P Mervel Index, up more than 175% in 2024.
The Global X MSCI Argentina ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARGT#NYSE">ARGT</a>), which invests in companies with exposure to Argentina and tracks the MSCI All Argentina 25/50 Index, has gained more than 65% year-to-date.&nbsp;
MercadoLibre, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MELI#NASDAQ">MELI</a>), a Latin American e-commerce company based in Argentina, is up 10% this year and shares of YPF SA (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/YPF#NYSE">YPF</a>), an Argentina-based oil and gas company, have soared more than 150% in 2024.&nbsp;
Analysts at BBVA Research <a href="https://www.bbvaresearch.com/en/publicaciones/argentina-economic-outlook-december-2024/">said that after</a> a brief recession in 2024, fourth-quarter data showed improvements which are complemented by renewed confidence in Argentina's government.&nbsp;
BBVA Research sees a recovery for the economy in 2025 driven by private consumption and investment,&nbsp; "creating a positive outlook for 2025."

Benzinga Market Summary: PPI Readings Come In Below Expectations, Broadcom Shares Rise On Earnings, Argentina Stocks Gain On Approval Of Reforms Package

Editor&#8217;s note: This story has been updated with additional details.
Multiple stocks on the New York Stock Exchange experienced sudden trading halts after 9:40 a.m. ET Monday <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/nyse">due to technical issues.</a>
The unexpected pauses in trading were triggered by a technical issue categorized under the &#8220;Limit Up/Limit Down&#8221; code, which is typically used to curb excessive volatility in a single stock.
The NYSE said it is investigating the reported technical issue. &#8220;Additional information will follow as soon as possible,&#8221; NYSE-owner Intercontinental Exchange Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ICE#NYSE">ICE</a>) stated. 
Among the largest companies halted on Monday were Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) at 9:50:52 a.m. ET and Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>) at 9:44:58 a.m. ET. 
Chipotle shares experienced a sudden and dramatic decline of 66%, plummeting from $3,097 to $1,047. The stock resumed trading at 10:21 a.m.
At 9:49 a.m., ET shares of Berkshire Hathaway faced an even more severe downturn, nearly being wiped out with a staggering 99.7% collapse from $622,375 to $185.10. As of this update, trading has not yet resumed for the company owned by Warren Buffett.

Berkshire Hathaway, Chipotle, More NYSE Stocks Hit With Trading Halts Triggered By Technical Issues (UPDATED)

&#8220;I recommend investing in Argentina&#8221; — a few words from Elon Musk on social media platform X bolstered Argentine assets to new heights, underscoring investor confidence under new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/05/38659381/elon-musk-meets-bitcoin-supporting-president-javier-milei-again-i-recommend-investing-in-a">President Javier Milei&#8217;s administration.</a>
The Global X MSCI Argentine ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARGT#NYSE">ARGT</a>), which tracks the performance of leading Argentine stocks, registered over a 1% increase shortly after markets opened in New York. 
This marks the ETF&#8217;s eighth gain in nine sessions, culminating in a 54% rally since Milei&#8217;s election victory in November 2023.
The bullish sentiment extended to Argentine fixed-income assets, particularly dollar-denominated bonds. Notes maturing in July 2030 spiked to 55 cents on the dollar, more than doubling their value since the election of the libertarian President, who many now regard as having a Midas touch on the nation&#8217;s financial market.
Investor optimism has been particularly robust within the banking sector. Shares in major Argentine banks like Banco Macro S.A. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMA#NYSE">BMA</a>), Grupo Financiero Galicia S.A. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GGAL#NASDAQ">GGAL</a>), and Banco BBVA Argentina S.A. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAR#NYSE">BAR</a>) soaring by more than 100% since the start of the year.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Argentina&#8217;s Central Bank Slashes Rates As Monthly Inflation</h3>
Earlier this month, Argentina&#8217;s central bank made a significant move by cutting the benchmark interest rate by 10 percentage points to 50%. 
This adjustment, the fifth since December and third in three weeks, was prompted by a noticeable slowdown in monthly inflation. 
At the end of 2023, the monthly inflation rate in Argentina surged to 25%, indicating a perilous path towards hyperinflation. 
March&#8217;s inflation data revealed a slowdown to 11% month-over-month, lower than the anticipated 12.1%.
In addition, Milei&#8217;s administration bolstered the country&#8217;s fiscal measures. In the first quarter of the year, Argentina achieved the first budget surplus in 16 years. 
&#8220;If the state does not spend more than it collects and does not issue (money), there is no inflation. This is not magic,&#8221; Milei stated.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">IMF Commends Argentine Efforts</h3>
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has praised Argentina for its &#8220;ambitious stabilization plan,&#8221; noting the country&#8217;s progress in restoring macroeconomic stability, as Julie Kozack, head of the Communications Department at the IMF, said in April. 
With improved fiscal management, rebuilding of international reserves, and better-than-expected inflation control, Argentina is seeing positive changes in key economic indicators.
In February, the IMF approved an immediate disbursement of $4.7 billion to Argentina, part of a larger effort to support the country&#8217;s economic reforms. This brings the total IMF disbursements under the current arrangement to approximately $40.6 billion.
Looking ahead, the Argentine government&#8217;s commitment to fiscal discipline and inflation control sets a promising course for continued economic recovery. With international support and robust policy measures, Argentine assets could continue to witness the continuation of their bullish momentum.
