Mexico's economic landscape experienced a shift in the first quarter of 2025, as aggregate demand decreased by 1.10%, disrupting the stability observed in the previous quarter. This decline comes after a stagnant fourth quarter in 2024, where the indicator rested at 0.00%, suggesting no growth or decline during that period.
The recent downturn highlights a change in Mexico's economic activity within the quarter-over-quarter framework, comparing current quarter figures to those of the last quarter. While the previous period (Q4 2024) maintained equilibrium without any movement, the drop in demand in Q1 2025 raises concerns among economists and policymakers about potential underlying factors affecting consumer spending, investment, and overall economic confidence.
The data was updated on June 18, 2025, prompting analysts to closely monitor the trends and potential implications for Mexico's economy throughout the coming year. With aggregate demand serving as a key economic indicator, this decrease may signal challenges ahead, urging strategic adjustments in economic policies to reignite growth and stave off further declines.
