MEXICO
  • The accumulated MXN depreciation since the start of August (over 6.0%), and elevated external (US elections) and local (constitutional reforms) risks are the main reasons for a cautious Banxico this month, according to CIBC.
  • Although the drop in core prices back to Banxico’s 2%-4% target range could provide some room for the continuation of the easing cycle this year, CIBC expect Banxico to remain on hold on Sep 26th.
