What happened
Torcuato Di Tella University released the Consumer Confidence Index for Argentina on October 23, 2026. The index rose 0.8% month-on-month in October, following a 2.4% increase in September. This regional improvement was driven entirely by the City of Buenos Aires, where the index surged 6.8% in the month.
Why it matters
The index release comes as President Milei’s government seeks to reassure markets amid growing concerns about an economic recession. Analysts note that the historical correlation between consumer confidence and confidence in the government has weakened in recent months.
