Summary
Argentina’s monthly economic activity estimate rose 2.7% from a year earlier in June, accelerating from an upwardly revised 0.4% gain in May; it also increased 0.8% from May on a seasonally adjusted basis.
Twelve of 15 sectors posted annual growth, with fishing surging 247.6%, mining and quarrying rising 15.6%, and agriculture, livestock, hunting and forestry up 4.6%.
Three sectors still contracted: public administration, defense and compulsory social security plans fell 1.5%, utilities slipped 0.4%, and education edged down 0.1%.
The broadening sector gains suggest Argentina’s mid-2026 recovery strengthened in June after the much weaker pace recorded a month earlier.

With Argentina's exports booming but local consumers struggling, is the nation's recent economic growth a mirage masking a deeper domestic crisis?
