'Blue' dollar rises amid control fears
The “blue” parallel dollar rate rose two cents today to 12.70 pesos in thin trading and amid fears of further controls by the government in underground houses. "We will not be trading today," a trader told ambito.com.
Meanwhile, the official dollar rate closed unchanged at 9.05 pesos in banks and foreign exchange agencies.
The gap between the oficial dollar and the parallel rates reached 40.1 percent.
On Friday, the dollar price jumped amid new government controls in the city aimed at fighting the illegal currency trading.
The blue-chip swap rate dropped 10 cents to 11.86 pesos, while the stock exchange rate fell five cents to also close at 11.86 pesos.
