Fundamental view
Mexico’s annualized industrial production probably expanded 0.69% in June, according to the median forecast by experts, following another 1.6% increase in May. In monthly terms, nation’s industrial production probably rose 0.32% last month. The index reflects the change in overall inflation-adjusted value of output in sectors such as manufacturing, mining and utilities. In case output expanded more than anticipated, this would have a bullish effect on the peso.
Insituto Nacional de Estadistica Y Geografia is expected to release the official report at 13:00 GMT.
