墨西哥比索兑美元汇率跌破20.6,接近20.85的三年低点,自年初以来,由于对美国关税的担忧再次出现,加上对Banxico的鸽派预期,这一低点已多次受到考验。周日,美国和哥伦比亚勉强避免了贸易战,此前白宫表示,这个南美国家已同意接受载有被驱逐移民的军用飞机,但他们最初拒绝了这一点。这再次引发了人们对特朗普贸易政策的担忧,尤其是预计2月1日对墨西哥商品征收高达25%关税的迫在眉睫的威胁。这些关税被视为对边境管制松懈的谴责,可能会扰乱墨西哥最大贸易伙伴的外汇流入,减少对墨西哥出口的需求,特别是在汽车行业。反过来,这可能会促使Banxico加快降息,因为投资放缓、工业产出和通货膨胀加剧了人们对今年货币宽松的预期。
The Mexican peso weakened past 20.6 per USD, approaching the three-year low of 20.85, which has been tested repeatedly since the beginning of the year, amid renewed concerns over U.S. tariffs, compounded by dovish expectations for Banxico. The United States and Colombia narrowly avoided a trade war on Sunday after the White House said the South American country had agreed to accept military aircraft carrying deported migrants, which they had initailly rejected. This has reignited fears about Trump’s trade policy, particularly with the looming threat of tariffs of up to 25% on Mexican goods expected February 1st. These tariffs, framed as a reprimand for lax border control, could disrupt foreign exchange inflows from Mexico’s largest trading partner and reduce demand for Mexican exports, particularly in the auto sector. This, in turn, may prompt Banxico to expedite rate cuts as slowing investment, industrial output, and inflation heightened expectations for monetary easing this year.
