The manufacturing sector in Mexico experienced a minor dip in October 2025, as revealed by the latest S&P Global Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI). The index, updated on November 3, 2025, edged down from 49.60 in September to 49.50 in October, signaling a continued contraction in the sector.
This slight decrease marks the second consecutive month that the PMI has remained below the crucial 50 threshold, which separates expansion from contraction. As manufacturers navigate the challenges posed by both domestic and international market forces, the marginal decline reflects ongoing pressures within the sector.
Economists are watching closely to see how the industry adjusts to fluctuating demand and supply chain constraints. The push to recover growth momentum is likely to spur deeper analysis and possibly policy responses to ensure stability and improve future prospects in Mexico's manufacturing landscape.
