• USD/MXN depreciates as the US Dollar faces challenges ahead of CPI data release.

USD/MXN retraces its recent gains from the previous session, trading around 20.00 during Wednesday’s European hours. This downside of the pair is attributed to the subdued US Dollar (USD) amid decreasing Treasury yields.

Traders await the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data scheduled to be released later in the North American hours.

Moreover, the recent US labor market report has cast doubt on the possibility of an aggressive Fed interest rate cut.

According to the CME FedWatch Tool, markets are fully anticipating at least a 25 basis point (bps) rate cut by the Federal Reserve at its September meeting. The likelihood of a 50 bps rate cut has slightly decreased to 31.0%, down from 38.0% a week ago.

The Mexican Peso (MXN) is under downward pressure due to concerns over judicial reforms and dovish expectations for the Bank of Mexico (Banxico). Investor sentiment has been weakened by a judicial reform bill passed by Mexico's lower house on September 4, which proposes electing judges rather than appointing them.
