The relief is explained by the reduction of tensions in one of the world's main critical areas, the Strait of Hormuz, which directly impacted the price of energy.

In contrast, the only declines were recorded in the energy sector, with declines in YPF and Pampa Energía, directly affected by the fall in the price of crude oil.
Locally, the S&P Merval index rose 2.3% measured in dollars, in line with global optimism. It should be noted that, due to the holiday of March 24, there was no operation in the official exchange market or intervention by the Central Bank, so the dynamics of the day were completely explained by external factors.
