ARThe Argentine 'Riesgo País' index closed at 512 points on August 31, 2026, maintaining parity with the previous Friday's close. The indicator, managed by JP Morgan, remained within a narrow trading range during international market sessions, surpassing the technical threshold of 500 units. The monthly increase reflects a repositioning of the yield differential over recent weeks, moving away from the minimum level reached at the start of August. Economists note that while the market knows the direction of the Caputo program, there is demand for changes and certainty. The index fluctuated between 509 and 517 points throughout the week, ending the month below the peaks above 530 points seen mid-August but above the low of 411 points recorded in the first trading session of the month.
Bias read (Center): The article presents factual data about the Riesgo País index and its fluctuations, focusing on economic indicators rather than taking a clear ideological stance. While it mentions the Caputo program and economist commentary, it does not frame these elements in a distinctly left or right-leaning way
