However, not everything was good news for the central bank, as the yearly CPI exceeded estimates.
- Mexico’s CPI rose 0.29% MoM, according to the National Statistics Agency (INEGI). This was lower than the expected 0.36% increase and higher than the 0.09% rise noted in February. Core figures rose by 0.44%, which was lower than the 0.51% that economists had forecast and below the 0.49% increase in February.
- The US Consumer Price Index (CPI) increased 0.4% MoM and 3.5% YoY, exceeding estimates, with annual inflation also punching above the previous month’s number.
