The spot exchange rate stands at 16.6940 pesos per dollar, compared to an official closing rate of 16.6740 pesos yesterday. This movement, in light of the Banxico data, results in a loss of 2 cents for the peso, equivalent to a 0.12 percent decline.

The dollar is trading in a narrow range, with a maximum of 16.6925 pesos and a minimum of 16.6219 pesos. The Dollar Index (DXY) from the Intercontinental Exchange, which measures the greenback against six major currencies, is down 0.24% at 104.68 points.

Now, traders are preparing for the release of the minutes from Banxico’s most recent monetary policy meeting, where the reference rate was kept at 11%, near its historic high. The next decision is scheduled for June 27. The disinflationary process could continue to be a challenge for the Bank of Mexico, which is why the expectation of an interest rate cut at the next meeting remains low.
