<p style="font-weight: 400;">In a staggering turnaround, Argentina’s libertarian president, Javier Milei, has reversed the country’s free-fall into the economic abyss and led a recovery that is simply astonishing.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">In November 2023, Argentina’s inflation rate had soared to 211.4% and the country had a poverty rate of 41.7%; 19.5 million people lived below the poverty line. Ironically, just before the November election, The Guardian <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/08/argentina-election-javier-milei-economists-warning">wrote</a> about a letter signed by more than 100 economists warning that electing Milei would bring “devastation” to Argentina.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“Through an aggressive program of public spending cuts, eliminating bureaucracy, and reducing public sector jobs, he erased Argentina’s massive fiscal deficit, paving the way for a historic economic recovery,” Emmanuel Rincon noted in <a href="https://thedailyeconomy.org/article/mileis-economic-miracle-how-argentina-slashed-inflation-to-1-5/">The Daily Economy</a>.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">By May 2025, the inflation rate had plummeted to 43.5%, and the consumer price index rose 1.5%, marking the lowest levels in five years. Wholesale prices dropped by 0.3% in May, the best number in 17 years.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“These achievements were no fluke,” Rincon wrote. “They stemmed from a clear strategy: fiscal balance, reduced public spending, ending monetary expansion as a financing tool, and economic deregulation.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Alberto Cavallo, professor at Harvard Business School, pointed out:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="font-weight: 400;"><em>The PriceStats PPP index, which compares thousands of identical products (electronics, food, and fuels), shows a sharp decline: the basket is now 1% cheaper than in the USA. &#8230; The relative costs with Brazil dropped by more than 20 points since January, due to the combined effect of the peso&#8217;s depreciation and the real&#8217;s appreciation against the dollar. Today, the basket of identical products is 3% cheaper in Argentina, below the average since 2016.</em></p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">Milei, like President Donald Trump, wants to open up his nation&#8217;s economy by utilizing its oil resources through drilling in the Vaca Muerta, a geologic formation located in the Neuquen Basin in northern Patagonia, where major deposits of shale oil and gas are found. “The libertarian leader wants to transform Argentina into a major oil producer and reshape an economy <a href="https://archive.is/o/MdqKE/https:/www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-11-10/on-argentina-s-pampas-farmers-are-all-in-on-libertarian-milei">built on farming</a>. It’s an existential project for all involved: Should Milei succeed in generating new oil wealth, he might manage to heave Argentina from its economic quagmire and persuade voters to keep backing his vision,” <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2025-07-02/argentina-shale-oil-boom-helps-javier-milei-push-economic-reforms">Bloomberg</a> reported.</p>
