Argentina’s Economic Activity Growth Cools to 1.9% in January, Easing From December Pace

Argentina’s economic activity expanded by 1.9% year-over-year in January 2026, slowing from a 3.5% increase recorded in December 2025, according to data updated on 26 March 2026. The figures are based on a year-over-year comparison, measuring January’s performance against the same month a year earlier.

The latest reading points to a moderation in the pace of growth at the start of 2026, following a stronger year-over-year gain in the final month of 2025. While activity remains in positive territory, the deceleration suggests that momentum in Argentina’s economy may be softening after the more robust performance seen toward the end of last year.
