The Unemployment Rate released by the INDEC is the number of unemployed workers compared to all the active workers in the economy. If the number rises, it indicates a lack of expansion within the Argentinian labor market and thus a weakening in the economy. Normally, a decrease in the figure is seen as positive (or bullish) for the Peso, while an increase is seen as negative (or bearish).
The typical/expected impact on ARS pairs is Low.
Lower numbers than forecast tend to be bullish for xxx/ARS pairs and bearish for ARS/xxx pairs.
