Banco BBVA Argentina (BBAR) Stock Surges on Dec. 18, 2025: Dividend Headlines, FX Overhaul Tailwinds, and Where Analysts See the Shares Next

New York / Buenos Aires — December 18, 2025. Banco BBVA Argentina S.A. shares are back in the spotlight today after a sharp move higher in U.S. trading. The bank’s NYSE-listed American Depositary Shares (ADS) (ticker: BBAR) traded around $18.44, up roughly $1.48 on the session (about +8.7% versus the prior close), with trading ranging from roughly $16.57 to $18.50.

Portugal Tops The Economist’s 2025 Economy Ranking as France Lands 11th — and Why “Progress” Looks Different From Syria to Argentina

December 26, 2025 — In a year when inflation cooled across much of the world and central banks delivered their biggest easing push in more than a decade, economic “winners” depended on what, exactly, you measured: growth, price stability, jobs, market confidence—or societal change.

Dec. 18, 2025 — Rio Tinto plc stock is back in the spotlight today as investors weigh a new lithium-focused take from UBS against fresh reporting from Guinea’s Simandou iron ore mega-project and the miner’s broader strategy reset under CEO Simon Trott.

UBS kept a neutral stance and an A$140 price target, noting execution discipline remains decisive even as the lithium

Coinbase stock: Argentina peso-to-USDC halt sets up Monday test for COIN

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 11:00 ET — Market closed Coinbase Global (COIN.O) will stop allowing customers in Argentina to buy or sell USD Coin (USDC) using pesos from Jan. 31, the company told users, scaling back local-currency services less than a year after it entered the market.
