Argentina's economic activity experienced a slight, worse-than-expected monthly increase of 0.1% in August, following a sharp decline in July, according to data published on Wednesday by the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (Indec).
Despite the modest monthly recovery, the figures show that economic activity has remained stagnant over a five-month period under the government of President Javier Milei. The data also reflects a year-on-year contraction of 1.7% for August, while cumulative growth for the year reached 1.2%.
