Argentina achieves stunning $888M trade surplus under Milei; Inflation plummets to 2.7% from 25.5%!

Sharing is Caring!

Argentina reported a remarkable $888 million trade surplus in October 2024, a sharp recovery from a $442 million deficit the previous year. Exports surged by 30%, led by agriculture and manufacturing, while imports rose modestly by 4.9%.

This economic turnaround is widely attributed to President Javier Milei’s libertarian policies, which include cutting government spending and eliminating bureaucratic barriers, creating a more favorable business environment.

Inflation, which stood at a staggering 25.5% when Milei took office in December 2023, has steadily declined since. Monthly inflation rates are now as follows:

  • January: 20.6%
  • February: 13.9%
  • March: 11%
  • April: 8.8%
  • May: 4.2%
  • June: 4.6%
  • July: 4%
  • August: 4.2%
  • September: 3.5%
  • October: 2.7%

This consistent decline reflects the effectiveness of Milei’s reforms in stabilizing the country’s economy.
