Argentine bonds fell 5% and the country-risk index rose to 939 basis points, its highest level of the year, as domestic assets weakened amid external volatility following elections in the United States and Brazil. Brent crude fell 16% during the first week of November, while Argentine stocks also suffered losses.
The sharp fall in crude can weigh on oil-related equities and reduce expected energy-export revenue, adding pressure to Argentine financial assets. Lower crude prices are bearish for oil benchmarks.
