Detailed Explanation:

This line chart shows the daily evolution of the Argentine peso to US dollar exchange rate (ARS/USD) from 2017 onwards, highlighting official rates.

  • Exchange Rate (ARS/USD): Represents the price of one USD in ARS, influenced by factors like inflation differentials, capital flows, and BCRA interventions.

Purpose: It tracks devaluations, gaps between official and parallel rates (e.g., Dólar Blue), and their impact on competitiveness and inflation passthrough. Spikes often coincide with economic crises or policy shifts.

Note: Historical data may reflect multiple exchange regimes in Argentina.
