• USD/MXN sinks to a seven-year low, influenced by the MXN’s favorable interest rate and Fed’s dovish stance.
• Despite USD/MXN decline, higher US Treasury bond yields hint at a potential Fed rate hike in July.
• A widened US trade deficit for April, driven by falling exports and rising imports, contributes to USD’s depreciation against the MXN.

The pair currently trades last at 17.3506.

The previous day high was 17.4978 while the previous day low was 17.3714. The daily 38.2% Fib levels comes at 17.4197, expected to provide resistance. Similarly, the daily 61.8% fib level is at 17.4495, expected to provide resistance.

USD/MXN collapsed to new seven-year lows on Wednesday, as the interest rate differential favors the Mexican Peso (MXN), while the US Dollar (USD) weakened on last week’s Fed dovish commentary ahead of the next week’s monetary policy meeting. Even though a risk-off impulse is present in the markets, the USD/MXN is trading at around 17.3600s after hitting a daily high of 17.3915.

Sentiment remains deteriorated, as shown by US equities. Higher US Treasury bond yields cushion the USD/MXN from falling further, as investors bet the US Federal Reserve would hike rates in July after skipping the June meeting. The CME FedWatch Tool portrays odds for a 25-bps increase at 50.8%, at around the same level as yesterday.

Nevertheless, G10 central banks tightening monetary policy after skipping some rate-setting decisions keeps investors nervous about the Fed’s next move. During the last week, policymakers stressed that a pause is necessary to assess the impact of the cumulative tightening in the economy.

Data-wise, the US economic agenda featured the US Trade Balance, showing the deficit broadened in April, compared with March’s data. Numbers came at $-74.6B in April of 2023, vs. March’s $-60.B. A notable dip in exports contributed to this shift, while imports rose sharply

The greenback shifted positively; printing gains as shown by the US Dollar Index (DXY). The DXY, which tracks the USD performance against a basket of six currencies, pares its earlier losses, up 0.04%, at 104.078.

After testing the 17.99 on May 26, the USD/MXN plunged 3.50%, sponsored by overall MXN strength. Swing In market sentiment tempered the pair’s fall, but even comments that the Bank of Mexico would keep rates unchanged for two meetings was no excuse for the MXN to appreciate. Technical indicators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the three-day Rate of Change (RoC) suggest that sellers remain in charge. That said, the USD/MXN next support would be the year-to-date (YTD) low of 17.3046. A breach of the latter will expose the 2016 low of 17.0500 before diving to 17.0000. Conversely, the USD/MXN first resistance would be the 20-day EMA at 17.6314, followed by the 50-day EMA at 17.8587.
