The Trend

A brief recap of why Argentina's Boom has already begun 🇦🇷

In case you didn't notice, 🇦🇷Argentina🇦🇷 is now The Trend - That is the word that represents right now Argentina to the world.

Do you think I'm talking nonsense? Let's do a brief recap of the last year from Argentina to the world with just 7 points:

  1. Messi, of course, is number one on the list.

    • As the GOAT🐐 of football, he is at the peak of his fame worldwide after winning his 8th Ballon d'Or.

    • He joined Inter Miami and gained access to the vast United States market.

    • The list can go on, but let's end with him winning the most valuable trophy of his career, the World Cup.

  2. Winning the World Cup

    • We saw the unique fans from Argentina in Qatar's World Cup chanting in every stadium and filling the grades with their unique madness.

    • All over the world, we realized that Argentina has fans in every corner of the globe and that countries like Bangladesh celebrated the triumph as their own.

    • During the celebrations in Argentina, more than 5 million people went to the streets to receive the world champions.

      Only a glimpse of that day…

  3. The Patagonia, ok, nothing so new going on over here, but it's a must when you talk about Argentina. We’ll discuss more about Patagonia later on.

    More than words…

  4. IMF Argentina's Debt. Argentina’s debt with the IMF is the largest - by far - of the international organism and has been in the global financial spotlight due to the Restructuring Agreement. This massive debt is a big problem for both Argentina and the IMF.

  5. Pope Francis, as the head of the Catholic Church, the Argentine Pope leads more than 1.3 billion (yes with a b) people and significantly influences new trends in religion.

  6. Argentina's rate of inflation is one of the largest in the world. Last December, the inflation ended up being 21% 🤯 in Buenos Aires City, yes, just for December. The annualized inflation rate is way above 200%.

  7. Javier Milei is the cherry on top of the tremendous Argentinian movement that has already risen, and it's just beginning.

    • The first libertarian president elected in the world,

    • Elon Musk has been commenting and tweeting several videos of Milei.

    • The interview with Tucker Carlson was the most viewed on X, surpassing the one with Donald Trump.

So, we didn't speak much about business till now…

As the first newsletter, I wanted to show one of the most essential points that I consider underestimated as a starting point to doing business in Argentina. It is pretty simple: Argentina is The Trend. We'll learn more about this trend in the upcoming weeks and why it matters.

See you next Thursday, Vamos Argentina!
