Let us take a look at the charts of VISTA theme attached is Argentina Merval Index

We are still at 50th percentile of the bullish market which had many more years to go. Charts display bullish strength where Argentina Merval Index had seen a minor retracement correction after hitting 35,500 points high in January 2018.

Argentina despite maintain a high US dollar denominated debt, its stock market has a stellar performance instead of a under performance stock market under the leadership of President Macri who is anti populist economic policies, and introducing a series of pro market reforms. Argentina Merval Index is on an uptrending chart based on historical records till date.

With the recent emerging markets technical correction of over 20% enter into a technical bear market, lots of financial analyst expert are calling for a bear market to take place in year 2019.

Surprisingly, Argentina Merval Index is less affected by the recent US dollar strengthening and rising treasury yields for it is a weaker stock market index, currency markets peso where it should have been greatly affected like the Turkish ISA 100 National equity market and Turkish Lira for maintaining a high US dollar denominated debt.

Our of proportion VISTA theme markets comprising Vietnam, Indonesia, South Africa, Turkey and Argentina, 4 out of 5 are in a stronger uptrending stock market except South Africa. So are we going to see a financial crisis taking place soon?
