The Mexican peso strengthened 0.3% on Friday, trading around 17.31 as markets focused on geopolitical developments, including US–Iran negotiations. Uncertainty in the Middle East, particularly risks around the Strait of Hormuz, continues to support a geopolitical risk premium. The US dollar remains under pressure as US inflation stays broadly in line with expectations and the Federal Reserve maintains a cautious, data-dependent stance, limiting Treasury yield upside. At the same time, resilient but uneven US growth keeps markets balanced between inflation and slowdown risks. Risk appetite supports emerging market currencies, with the peso benefiting from strong carry appeal and a wide interest rate differential versus the US. USD/MXN is down 14.79% this year, reflecting dollar weakness and sustained inflows into Mexican assets.
