In the recent Argentine presidential elections, economist Javier Milei, known for his libertarian views, and Sergio Massa, a member of the Justicialist Party, emerged as significant contenders. The first round of voting took place on October 22, 2023, with Massa securing a victory over Milei. However, the final results will be determined in a second round of voting.

Milei, a newcomer to politics, has gained popularity with his anti-establishment rhetoric and promises of economic reform. On the other hand, Massa, a seasoned politician, has focused on social justice and maintaining stability in the country. The election has been closely watched by international observers due to Argentina's economic significance in Latin America.

Meanwhile, global markets have been affected by tensions in Taiwan, contributing to a $2.3 trillion selloff in emerging stocks. This geopolitical situation has added to the economic uncertainty in Argentina, as the country is heavily reliant on foreign investment. The outcome of the Argentine presidential election could have significant implications for the country's economic future and its relations with global markets.
