  • USD/MXN rose 0.96% to 17.44 as markets priced limited near-term Banxico easing.
  • IPC Bolsa fell 0.30% to 65,944.64 amid softer growth revisions and USMCA delays.
  • Mexico short-term rate held at 5.43% while long-term yields climbed 1.60% to 8.88%.

Yesterday's Recap

Mexican markets closed mixed on June 7 with no domestic data releases. The peso depreciated sharply as USD/MXN climbed nearly 1% to 17.44, reflecting broader USD strength and delayed USMCA renewal talks. IPC Bolsa declined 0.30% to 65,944.64 as investors digested downward growth revisions for Mexico and the US.

Oil prices advanced, with WTI up 1.23% to 91.65 and Brent rising 1.61% to 94.59, supporting energy-linked revenues. Mexico’s short-term rate remained at 5.43% while the long-term rate increased to 8.88%. News of potential months-long haggling over auto rules and Chinese content added to trade uncertainty.

Remittances and nearshoring flows continued to underpin the current account despite the softer equity tone.

The Day Ahead

Mexico will release May inflation data at 04:00 ET on June 9. The MoM rate is expected to follow the prior 0.2% print while the YoY measure stands at 4.45%. These figures will shape expectations for Banxico’s next moves given the 5.43% policy rate.

No central bank speakers or minutes are scheduled. Markets will also monitor any updates on USMCA consultations and pension fund inflows reported by US asset managers. Industrial production and export data may follow later in the week.

Other Economic Notes

Growth forecasts for Mexico were revised lower due to rising protectionism and policy uncertainty. Nearshoring remains a bright spot with new auto-component investments announced in northern states. Remittances hit record levels, supporting consumption even as fiscal discipline limits sovereign spread widening.

US demands for stricter car-parts rules could extend trade negotiations beyond the July USMCA milestone. Pension fund allocations to private credit are drawing interest from major US managers seeking exposure to the $500 billion Afore system.

Global Macro News

USMCA partners are set to miss the July renewal deadline, increasing tariff risks for autos and manufacturing supply chains. <i>↓ p.2</i>

Global Macro News (continued)

Washington continues to press Mexico and Canada on reducing Chinese content in North American vehicles. Broader global growth downgrades reflect similar protectionist pressures affecting US and Mexican outlooks. Tourism inflows are rising across Latin America, including Mexico, ahead of the World Cup, though security assurances remain in focus.

Central banks in Canada and Australia signal steady rates amid mixed inflation and growth signals. Bitcoin and gold posted modest gains, reflecting selective risk appetite outside emerging-market currencies. Iran’s World Cup participation adds minor logistical notes but carries limited macro weight for Mexico.

Banxico Watch

The policy rate sits at 5.43% with no recent vote details released. Softening core inflation trends and steady remittances have kept markets from pricing aggressive cuts. OIS curves embed only modest easing through year-end, consistent with Banxico’s data-dependent stance.

The peso’s recent depreciation may limit front-loaded moves even if tomorrow’s inflation print comes in line with 4.45% YoY. Forward guidance continues to emphasize inflation convergence before any shift in the easing bias. Long-term yields rising to 8.88% signal that markets expect gradual rather than rapid policy adjustment.
