Mexico’s economic activity strengthened in March 2026, with the key indicator rising 0.40% month-over-month, up from a modest 0.10% increase in February 2026. The latest data, updated on 22 May 2026, points to a notable acceleration in short-term momentum for the Mexican economy.
On a month-over-month basis, the “actual” figure for March compares the change in activity versus February, while the “previous” figure reflects February’s change against January. The move from 0.10% to 0.40% suggests that underlying economic conditions improved as the first quarter drew to a close, signaling stronger output and demand compared with the start of the year.
While the data set only covers two consecutive months, the threefold increase in the monthly growth rate will likely be watched closely by policymakers and investors as they assess the durability of Mexico’s current expansion trajectory and its potential implications for monetary and fiscal planning.
