# Argentine assets jump as opposition leads in primary vote | Financial Post

> Argentine stocks hit an all-time high and bonds rallied after primary elections showed the conservative opposition leading, including by about five points in Buenos Aires province. The peso jumped 3.9% to 178 per dollar. Analysts at Goldman Sachs said the result raises the odds of a regime change in 2023 but warned of a possible shift to more populist policies by the Fernandez government.

## Why it matters

For feed buyers the impact is indirect: a stronger peso lowers the local-currency cost of Argentine soymeal and corn exports, which can ease pressure on world meal prices. The effect is modest because the move reflects political sentiment rather than a change in crop or trade flows.
