MEXICO: Peso Outperforming, Remains Lower This Week
MEXICO
- Despite the broad dollar strength to start the year, the Mexican peso is notably outperforming, with USDMXN tracking 0.85% lower on the session to 20.65. This further reverses the strong move higher earlier in the week, which saw the pair print a fresh cycle high above 20.90.
- Sheinbaum’s upbeat rhetoric on the potential relationship with the Trump administration may be contributing, however, it is worth pointing out that USDMXN still resides around 1.5% higher on the week.
- Support is found at the prior breakout level at 20.40, closely matching with the 20-day EMA.
