The wholesale dollar fell five pesos to 1,546 on Wednesday on heavy volume of nearly USD 700 million. The central bank bought USD 9 million, its first purchase of November, after two sessions without intervening.
International reserves rose USD 142 million to USD 50,435 million.
Central bank purchases are small relative to turnover, so they do little to move the peso. The move mainly reflects a supply-driven pullback in the official rate, which is a minor signal for Argentine feed import costs.
