ROME — Italian President Sergio Mattarella begins talks with key players on Wednesday in a bid to end Italy's political limbo the day after Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte resigned. The usually mild-mannered Conte handed in his resignation after lashing out at far-right Interior Minister Matteo Salvini for pursuing his own interests by pulling the plug on the ruling coalition with the anti-establishment Five Star Movement (M5S).

Hernan Lacunza, a former central bank governor, said "guaranteeing the exchange rate is a first-order objective."

The peso -- which lost 20 per cent of its value last week as markets reacted to a crushing primary election defeat for business-friendly President Mauricio Macri – showed no signs of a bounce. The currency rebounded from early losses to close 1.26 per cent higher at 57.39 to the dollar. Lacunza's arrival would ease short-term tensions, but "Argentina's situation is still delicate and the stock market is not going to recover at the same rate as the exchange rate," Economist Matias Rajnerman of Ecolatina said. Lacunza … [Read more...] about Peso stability a priority says new Argentine finance minister
