Mexico’s monthly GDP proxy (IGAE) expanded 0.2% m/m (sa), slightly weaker than our 0.3% m/m forecast. On an annual basis, growth accelerated from 1.2% y/y in September to 4.3% y/y in October.
Growth decelerated into Q4 and to weaken further. Domestic strength to help offset the impact of US weakness on growth. Indeed, gross fixed investment (GFI) grew 9.5% y/y in October.
A 0.7% m/m sa (19.3% y/y) rise in investment in equipment and machinery stands out.
