The Mexican Peso gained momentum on Tuesday following a significant drop in Mexico’s unemployment rate, highlighting resilience in the nation’s labor market. Official data showed a decline in unemployment to 2.9%, down from 3.1%, reinforcing optimism about the economy’s recovery. This data bolstered investor confidence, leading to increased demand for the Peso.
Meanwhile, the US Dollar faced pressure amid concerns over slower economic growth and potential shifts in Federal Reserve policy. As the Dollar softened, the Peso capitalized on its appeal, trading near its strongest levels in weeks. Analysts suggest the combination of Mexico’s robust employment figures and the Dollar’s retreat could drive further gains for the Peso in the short term.
