The selloff in Argentina’s debt amid a dramatic shift in expectations ahead of the country’s presidential election next year has gone too far, according to Morgan Stanley.
The country’s sovereign bonds currently imply a 41% to 52% probability of the bank’s bear-case scenario, up from just 11% to 20% three months ago, strategist Simon Waever wrote in a report Tuesday.
