# 'La Llorona' Takes the Dollar: Peso Gains 24 Cents on Day of the Dead

> The peso gained against the dollar on a holiday in Mexico, trading at 18.56 per dollar in electronic markets with low volume, about 24 cents below the previous Friday's close. The US 10-year Treasury yield was 4.47%, and Mexico's 10-year yield was 9.03%. Forecasts pointed to roughly 65,000 US jobs created in October, which could make a Fed rate hike more likely.
