USD/MXN rises to 17.30 amid weak Mexican retail sales and strong Fed support
In the past 24 hours, the USD/MXN currency pair has climbed to 17.30, its highest level in seven weeks. This movement is primarily driven by disappointing Mexican retail sales data and the U.S. Federal Reserve's continued support for the U.S. dollar.
Key points
- Mexican retail sales fell by 0.1% month-over-month in July, missing expectations of a 0.2% increase.
- The U.S. Federal Reserve's hawkish stance continues to bolster the U.S. dollar.
- The Relative Strength Index (RSI) for USD/MXN remains above 50, indicating potential for further gains.
