Mexico Peso Plunges as Trump’s 25% Tariffs Take Toll

Mexico’s peso (MXN) slumped for the fourth consecutive day, nearing its weakest point since mid-2022, thanks to US President Donald Trump’s new 25% tariffs on Mexican imports.

The Mexico peso declined nearly 1% in European trading, settling at 20.85 against the dollar. Volatility gauges spiked to a one-month high.

Mexico, which channels 80% of its exports to the US, faces mounting pressure. President Claudia Sheinbaum will address the nation later today from Mexico City, outlining her counter-strategy. The peso has tumbled 22% since April 2024, reflecting jitters over US trade policies and domestic political shifts.

Economic Fallout Looms

Bond market borrowing costs have dipped steadily as analysts brace for an economic slowdown, prompting expectations of deeper interest rate cuts by Mexico’s central bank.

A Monday poll from the bank slashed growth forecasts to 0.81% for 2025—down from January’s modest 1.00%. MUFG analyst Lee Hardman warns that prolonged tariffs could tip Mexico into recession, predicting a 5-10% peso drop if the duties stick.

Despite the peso’s slide, Hardman notes that Mexico’s peso decline remains tame compared to the tariff scale, which also hits Canada (whose dollar has shed 4% since Trump’s November win). “Markets seem optimistic these hikes won’t last, curbing major trade damage,” he says. But the clock’s ticking—sustained tariffs could spell trouble.
