  "account": "On September 1, 2026, Argentina's main stock index, the S&P Merval, climbed 1.83% to 3,033,848 points. The broader S&P BYMA index also increased by 1.95%. The peso showed a slight firming, with the wholesale dollar dropping to 1,512 pesos and the CCL market-based dollar hovering near 1,609.50. Banks led the rally, with Banco BBVA Argentina up 4.1%, Grupo Supervielle increasing 3.2%, and Grupo Galicia and Banco Macro each jumping around 3%. This movement seemed more like a continuation trade than a fresh headline, as country risk remained steady at 512 points and no major shocks occurred. The Merval's 1.83% gain was modest by recent Argentine standards, but it felt more like a steady bid rather than a sudden surge.",
  "summary": "Merval climbs 1.83% to 3,033,848 as bank stocks lead a steadier peso and bond session. Argentina's country risk holds at 512 points. The post Argentina Markets: Merval & the Peso — September 1, 2026 appeared first on The Rio Times .",
