Shares of energy stocks are trading lower amid a drop in oil and natural gas prices following a decline in US Q1 GDP, which could weigh on demand outlook.

On April 24, 2025, iShares MSCI Argentina and Global Exposure ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARGT#NYSE">ARGT</a>) dashed ahead of leading indices, making even the S&amp;P 500 and the popular iShares MSCI Emerging Index Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EEM#NYSE">EEM</a>) nervously trying to catch up.

As reported by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/eric-balchunas">Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas</a>, ARGT closed at $42.35, a steep 3.5% daily advance from its earlier close of $40.90. In comparison, the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) rose just 0.5% to $498.12, and the Emerging Markets ETF, a broader indicator of emerging countries, managed a 1.2% gain, closing at $43.70.

So, what&#8217;s driving this Latin rally? Argentina&#8217;s recent move to relax long-standing currency controls has ignited investor enthusiasm. The government&#8217;s action was an appreciated tango step toward liberalization, drawing capital inflows and prompting a surge in equity demand, Blockchain News <a href="https://blockchain.news/flashnews/argentina-etf-outperforms-spy-and-emerging-markets-a-trading-analysis">said</a>.

ARGT Vs EEM: Apples And Empanadas
While EEM provides diversified exposure across nations such as China, India, Brazil and South Korea, ARGT is far more focused, following the MSCI All Argentina 25/50 Index, which concentrates on the top 20 Argentine firms. That makes ARGT riskier but also more responsive to domestic economic reform, a risk and an opportunity. ARGT places a heavy weight on local players like MercadoLibre (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MELI#NASDAQ">MELI</a>), YPF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/YPF#NYSE">YPF</a>), and Grupo Financiero Galicia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GGAL#NASDAQ">GGAL</a>), giving it a high beta.
EEM, on the other hand, leans toward Chinese tech giants like Tencent (OTCPK: TCEHY) and Alibaba (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>), as well as those from South Korea and India. This insulates the fund from country-specific shocks. But as a tradeoff, the upside is less explosive when a single market surges.
Additionally, ARGT levies a bit higher fee of 59 basis points compared to EEM&#8217;s 68 bps but provides a more focused bet on a single recovering market.
For those with a taste for measured risk and a preference for macro-fueled momentum, ARGT may be the spicier dish to try. As EEM continues to offer a well-balanced, globally diversified option, ARGT&#8217;s high-conviction exposure to Argentina&#8217;s liberalizing economy offers a high-reward option, along with a side of risk. As Buenos Aires opens the throttle and investor enthusiasm warms up, ARGT may remain a popular choice.
