Mexican Peso strengthens on positive interest rate forecast

The Mexican Peso has been edging higher in major pairs as interest rates in Mexico are expected to remain elevated. This increase is due to the attractive nature of relatively higher interest rates, which bring in higher inflows of foreign capital. The USD/MXN pair has been consolidating in its downtrend after a breakout, signaling more downside is expected in the future.

Last week, following the Bank of Mexico (Banxico) meeting, the central bank decided to keep its policy rate unchanged at 11.00%. This decision was made in light of persistent inflation, leading to a rebound in the Mexican Peso. Furthermore, the central bank also revised its inflation forecasts for the next six quarters, indicating a sustained period of inflationary pressures. This suggests that interest rates are likely to stay stable in the short-term, supporting the Mexican Peso’s upward trend.

From a technical analysis standpoint, USD/MXN has broken below the bottom of a short-term range, signifying the continued strengthening of the Mexican Peso. This breakout, which could also be viewed as a descending triangle pattern, suggests a prolonged move lower. The short-term trend appears bearish, with a potential target at 16.54 and further support at 16.34. Although the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates a temporary oversold condition, the overall outlook favors further downside for the pair.

The Mexican Peso is influenced by factors such as the country’s economic performance, foreign investment, remittances from Mexicans abroad, and geopolitical trends. Additionally, nearshoring and oil prices play a significant role in determining the value of the Mexican Peso. The Banxico’s main goal is to maintain inflation at low and stable levels, adjusting interest rates accordingly. Higher interest rates are positive for the Mexican Peso, attracting more investors. Macroeconomic data releases, such as economic growth and unemployment rates, have a significant impact on the Mexican Peso’s valuation.

Typically, during risk-on periods when market risks are perceived to be low, the Mexican Peso performs well. On the other hand, during times of market turbulence or economic uncertainty, the Mexican Peso tends to weaken as investors seek safer investments. Overall, the Mexican Peso is a key player in the Latin American currency market, with its value being influenced by a variety of economic and geopolitical factors. As interest rates remain elevated, the Mexican Peso may continue its upward trend in the near future.
