Context: Iran-U.S. Conflict Explained

The conflict between the United States and Iran began on February 28, 2026, resulting in more than 3,700 deaths.

The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow waterway between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, considered the world's most important oil transit chokepoint. Approximately 20% of global petroleum consumption passes through this strategic corridor, making its closure a significant threat to global energy security and economic stability.

The peace agreement includes:

Immediate ceasefire of military operations
Reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, the strategic passage through which 20% of the world's oil circulates
60-day period for negotiations on Iran's nuclear program
Iran would maintain its missile program and regional alliances

Note: Israel is not formally part of the agreement and reported attacks by Hezbollah. Hezbollah thanked Iran for including Lebanon in the agreement.

Effects on Argentina

Country Risk Explained: This indicator measures the probability that a country will default on its debt payments. A lower number indicates greater investor confidence. For Argentina, reaching 425 basis points represents a significant improvement in international perception.

Argentina's country risk fell to 425 basis points, its lowest level since April 2018. S&P upgraded the rating from CCC+ to B-, unlocking restrictions for institutional funds.

Impact on fuel: According to energy sector analysis, prices would not decrease for at least 2 months due to the buffer implemented during the conflict. With USD 80 per barrel, Vaca Muerta remains competitive for export.

Vaca Muerta is Argentina's massive shale oil and gas formation, located in Neuquén province. Considered one of the largest unconventional hydrocarbon reserves in the world, it represents a cornerstone of Argentina's energy independence and export potential.
