Argentina needs political stability before upside

President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner of Argentina at this point is a lame duck and cannot run for a new term.

So the next presidential election—whether the winner is going to be Mauricio Macri or Daniel Scioli or any of the other competitors—any of them would likely be more moderate in terms of macro policies and macroeconomic reforms than the current Argentina is. 

In spite of the mess, Argentina had a strong rally in its own stock market in local currency terms—and even in foreign currency terms—last year. So there are still economic opportunities there. The macroeconomy can be stabilized. There are huge reserves of shale gas. You could see a surprise on the upside when it’s more clear there will be political and policy changes.

India, Indonesia, Brazil, Turkey, South Africa, Hungary, Ukraine, Argentina, and Venezuela will remain fragile in 2014

Still, some emerging markets – namely, India, Indonesia, Brazil, Turkey, South Africa, Hungary, Ukraine, Argentina, and Venezuela – will remain fragile in 2014, owing to large external and fiscal deficits, slowing growth, below-target inflation, and election-related political tensions. Some of these countries – for example, Indonesia – have recently undertaken more policy adjustment and will be subject to lower risks, though their growth and asset markets remain vulnerable to policy and political uncertainties and potential external shocks. - in www.project-syndicate.org
