Mexico’s economy showed a marked turnaround at the end of 2025, with gross domestic product (GDP) growing 1.6% year-over-year in the fourth quarter, according to data updated on 30 January 2026. This follows a marginal 0.1% contraction recorded in the third quarter of 2025.
The figures are based on year-over-year comparisons, where the current reading reflects the change in GDP in the fourth quarter of 2025 versus the same quarter a year earlier. The previous reading similarly compared the third quarter of 2025 to the third quarter of 2024. The shift from a slight decline to solid positive growth suggests that Mexico’s economy gained momentum heading into the close of 2025, easing concerns raised after the negative third-quarter performance.
