First what is that graphic supposed to mean? It doesn’t says anything about Argentina? You just put a chart without any source or explanation and expect people to understand what is supposed to represent?

Image is the source with a link that leads to tradingeconomics.com/argentina/inflation-cpi which uses Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censos (INDEC) data. I’m not sure how more official one can get than data coming from Ministry of Economy. Which clearly shows annual inflation increasing, not going down.

<…> it was 57% POVERTY ESTIMATE not 60% <…>

And I did use ODSA figure (be it rounded to 60%), as that’s what the article referred to. INDEC only releases data twice a year, and their last figure was at ~40.1% in 2023H1 and 41.7% in 2023H2. There are no data for 2024 yet.

Your own Universidad Torcuato Di Tella source shows ~41% in November 2023 not 50% you claimed. So accusing someone of “inaccurate information” and “spouting <…> lies” just makes you look bad.

Exact numbers, while important, are not that relevant to my original comment. The whole appearance was tone-deaf, whichever way you want to slice it. Have a nice day.
