Argentina’s economy grew by 2.1% year-on-year in the December quarter of 2025, falling short of expectations for a 2.2% expansion and slowing from a 3.3% increase in the previous quarter. The slowdown was driven by renewed weakness across several key sectors with manufacturing production still in contraction (-2.2% vs. -2.4% in Q3) and wholesale and retail trade shrinking markedly (-5.0% vs. 0.6%). In contrast some areas still drove expansion with growth in agriculture surging significantly (16.1% vs. 0.8%) as the post drought rebound intensified while utilities remained in contraction (-0.7% vs. -0.8%). Transportation and communications also accelerated slightly (2.2% vs. 1.8%) and financial intermediation posted strong gains (17.2% vs. 28.4%). On a quarterly basis Argentina’s GDP rose 0.6% continuing a 0.3% increase in the previous period. source: Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censos (INDEC)
