The paralysis of the country caused by the total collapse of the national electric power system (SEN) that occurred this Friday in Cuba has helped keep the prices of reference currencies stable in the black market, which have remained unchanged for a week.
The values published by the independent medium elTOQUE based on the monitoring of the fluctuations of dollars, euros, and Convertible Currency (MLC) in buy and sell announcements published on social media already indicated in the last week the onset of a new period of stability.
This Saturday, October 19, at 11 in the morning, with the Cuban population immersed in uncertainty about the recovery of its relative and precarious “normalcy,” the dollar remains valued at 325 and the euro at 340 CUP.
In the case of the Freely Convertible Currency (MLC), it remains at 265 CUP, a price that has been maintained since October 9, when it dropped suddenly by five pesos.
Exchange rate today 10/19/2024 – 11:11 am in Cuba:
Exchange rate of the dollar USD to CUP according to el TOQUE: 325 CUP
Exchange rate of the euro EUR to CUP according to elTOQUE: 340 CUP
Exchange rate of the MLC to CUP according to TOQUE: 265 CUP
After having given signs at the beginning of October of some movements, the currencies are apparently calm once again.
