Americas1 source1 country🔦 Under-reported41m ago
On Monday, August 3, Wall Street opened in positive territory with the Dow Jones Industrial Average gaining 1.2 percent. The upward trend in international stock markets was driven by a significant decline in oil prices, with Texas oil plunging by more than 6 percent.
The drop in petroleum prices followed an announcement by US President Donald Trump regarding new conversations with Iran, alongside progress in peace negotiations aimed at normalizing shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. In the context of these international market movements, Argentina's country risk indicator experienced a decline.
