Argentina’s Economic Doldrums May Be Hitting Floor
Despite widespread predictions for a worsening outlook, Argentina’s economic doldrums may be reaching a floor, according to a recent series of data released Monday by Torcuarto Di Tella University.
In a report that tracks the performance of distinct “leading economic indicators,” the university highlighted data indicating there is a 38% probability that the current negative economic trend will turn around within the next six months. That’s up substantially from a measly 18.7% a month ago.
The university cautioned that the economic indicators are “inconclusive” and that it’s still too early to say a recovery in on the horizon. Still, things seem to be looking better today than they did a month ago.
Di Tella’s survey is somewhat similar conceptually to a widely watched U.S. report published by the Conference Board. You can see Di Tella’s survey for yourself here.
What’s the healthcare situation – National provided or private paid and how good are either?
There is public and private healthcare. Public is very good in some places, and terribly bad in others. Private is for people who work and get social security or for those who pay… is it really HMOs?, and it’s very good.
