Hurricane Polo, though downgraded, remains a powerful Pacific storm fueled by El Niño-related warm waters and continues to affect Mexico’s coastline.

The Day Ahead

The economic calendar remains empty on September 24 with zero scheduled releases. Traders will monitor any follow-up comments from Banxico officials on the policy outlook. Hurricane Polo, though downgraded, continues to track off Mexico’s Pacific coast and may affect sentiment toward energy and agriculture.

Market focus stays on peso volatility and carry-trade flows given the narrowing rate differential with the Fed. No minutes or inflation prints are due before the next policy meeting. NEXT10, Inc.

activated its first gold-mining operation at Panuco with an initial $507,000 investment and plans further capital deployment.

Other Economic Notes

Prime Minister Modi is accelerating trade talks with Mexico alongside a planned Canada visit, underscoring Mexico’s role in diversified supply chains. El Niño-driven warm waters continue to fuel Pacific storms, adding seasonal risk to coastal infrastructure and output. Nearshoring momentum persists but faces headwinds from higher local yields and peso depreciation.

The peso’s reversal reduces the appeal of carry trades, pressuring local assets even as oil prices climb and support Mexico’s fiscal position via Pemex revenues.

Global Macro News

Central banks in South Africa, Norway and New Zealand all raised rates, reinforcing a global tightening bias that pressures emerging-market currencies including the peso. High rates in Brazil continue to split that economy, illustrating the growth trade-off facing Mexico if Banxico delays easing. India’s push for deeper Mexico ties coincides with ongoing USMCA friction over autos and EVs.

Global oil prices climbed on supply concerns, supporting Mexico’s fiscal position via Pemex revenues. Cross-border trade settlement experiments in Asia highlight alternative payment channels that could eventually affect remittance flows to Mexico.

Banxico Watch

Bloomberg Economics noted that Banxico is likely to leave the policy rate unchanged at 6.50% for a third consecutive meeting while awaiting clearer evidence that inflation is converging to target. Mexico’s CPI stood at 3.26% YoY as of August 31, leaving mixed signals on the disinflation path. The committee’s forward guidance continues to emphasize data dependence rather than a preset easing sequence.

Narrowing rate differentials with the Fed have reduced carry-trade appeal and contributed to the peso’s recent reversal. Markets now price only modest cuts later in the year, keeping the 10-year yield anchored near 9.35%. Any shift in rhetoric will be watched closely for implications on the pace of future adjustments.
