labor data softness has tempered global rate-hike fears, aiding Mexican assets through lower Treasury yields. Persistent energy shocks from geopolitical tensions may keep central banks hawkish for longer, influencing Banxico's inflation path. Strong U.S.
gasoline demand supports crude prices and indirectly bolsters MXN via improved terms of trade. Regional peers such as the ruble and yen also advanced against the dollar, aligning peso performance with broader EM trends.
The policy rate stands at 5.36% following the May 1 decision. Recent inflation moderation has lowered odds of an immediate hold and increased the likelihood of a measured cut at the August meeting. Forward guidance continues to stress data dependence on core price trends and growth momentum.
Markets currently embed limited easing through December, consistent with Banxico's focus on anchoring expectations near the 3% target. Any further softening in July CPI would reinforce the case for gradual policy normalization while preserving MXN stability.
