Argentina consumption collapse: all 24 provinces below 2023 levels, NEA down 32.8%

A study reports that consumption across Argentina has fallen sharply, with no province recovering 2023 levels and the Northeast region down 32.8%. The breadth of the decline signals a deep domestic demand contraction, likely reflecting the ongoing recession and austerity measures. The data is from a single study and lacks methodological detail, so the exact magnitude is uncertain, but the uniform provincial decline is a strong signal of economic stress.
