Argentina's black market for dollars falters as currency controls are eased

On the streets of downtown Buenos Aires, where years of tough currency controls fermented a thriving black market for dollars, an army of illegal money traders are finding times hard under the economic reforms of Argentine President Javier Milei. Milei tore down most currency controls last month, easing access for Argentines to official currency markets after six years of restrictions.
