USDMXN Action - Peso resilience holding steady after recent Fed talk

Watching $USDMXN this week, it's interesting to see it holding relatively firm around these levels, currently sitting at $17.34564. With the latest Fedspeak pretty much reinforcing the higher-for-longer narrative, you'd think we'd see a more aggressive move back towards earlier highs. But the peso is showing some decent resilience. It did tick up a bit today, but the range has been pretty contained between $17.326 and $17.34564.

I'm still keeping an eye on whether this resistance holds, or if we start seeing a push back towards the 17.50 level if risk-off sentiment really takes hold in the broader market. It feels like there's a tug-of-war here, with local factors potentially cushioning some of the dollar strength we're seeing elsewhere. Definitely on the watchlist for any significant breaks.

Agree, the peso's resilience is notable. Wonder if it's sustained FDI helping to cushion the Fed impact, or if traders are simply pricing in a slower tightening cycle for Banxico.
