Mexico’s peso rose 0.65% against the dollar on Friday to 18.62 per dollar and gained 0.93% over the week, ending an eight-week losing streak. Investor appetite after the U.S. midterm election supported the currency, while stronger-than-expected U.S. jobs data and Banxico’s unexpected rate cut were countervailing factors.
The peso’s recovery reduces the local-currency cost of dollar-priced imports, including feed and agricultural commodities, while a weaker peso would raise those costs. The story reports a currency move but no direct change in commodity supply or demand.
