Presidential front-runner in Argentina woos foreign investors

The appearance at the dazzling Starlight Roof of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, with its ornate Austrian crystal chandeliers, was unusual because Fernández, a senator, faces a presidential election on Oct. 28 and was making the kind of pitch to foreigners that normally takes place after a candidate has won.

Néstor Kirchner, however, has kept Washington at arm's length, regularly berated the International Monetary Fund and maintained a warm relationship with Venezuela's populist President Hugo Chávez.

While defending her husband's presidency, she embraced the crowd that he has seemed to shun: U.S. investors and bankers suspicious of an administration that negotiated tough terms to restructure its $103 billion foreign debt and used price controls to keep inflation in check.

Her speech, and the responses to questions, avoided any specific policy proposals or a mention of how she would deal with inflationary pressures or with the angry holders of around $20 billion in defaulted Argentine bonds that have refused the terms of the restructuring.

Fernández, 55, recognized her country faced an energy crunch but made few proposals of how she would deal with it beyond bringing more nuclear and hydro-electric capacity on board in the coming years.

''We didn't hear anything new,'' said Roberto Sifon Arevalo, an associate director with the bond-rating agency Standard & Poor's, "and most important, we didn't hear anything about the future.''
