The easing cycle is over: Banxico delivered its fourteenth and final cut to 6.50% on May 7, 2026, 475 bps from the 11.25% peak, so the fixed-income case is locking in a roughly 5% real yield on the 10Y MBono at the trough, not a bet on further cuts.
The equity case is income and a cheaper multiple, not an EM re-rating: the IPC has de-rated to 14.94x trailing earnings with a 3.28% dividend yield, while Mexico lagged EM year-to-date (+14.4% vs +25.6%), so we make no relative-outperformance call.
Only disbursed manufacturing FDI and confirmed IMSS hiring are investable: the record USD 23.6 billion Q1 2026 FDI print was 94% reinvested profits and only 7% new investment, while manufacturing payrolls fell 1.4% year over year.
