# The peso opens at 18.61 after ending an eight-week losing streak

> The Mexican peso opened near 18.61 per dollar, little changed from Friday, after gaining 0.82% last week and ending eight consecutive weeks of losses. Banco Base cited a volatile market and projected a near-term consolidation range of 18.60–18.80, while noting the recent Banxico rate cut narrowed the interest-rate gap with the United States.

## Why it matters

A narrower rate differential can reduce demand for peso-denominated assets and leave the currency vulnerable to renewed depreciation. A weaker peso can increase the cost of imported feed and grain for Mexican buyers.
