> The peso appreciated nearly 0.62% on November 6, approaching 18.60 per dollar, and was on track for a weekly gain that would end eight consecutive weeks of losses. Banxico had cut its benchmark rate by 25 basis points to 6.25% in a split vote, while strong U.S. employment data and the narrower interest-rate differential also influenced currency-market conditions.
