Top Gainers and Losers: British Pound and Mexican Peso

31/3/2023

Top Gainers - global market

Over the past 7 days, the US dollar index continued to decline but failed to update the previous week's minimum. A slowdown in the decline can be noted. Preliminary data for the first quarter of 2023 showed that the US dollar index fell by -1.3%. In the fourth quarter of 2022, its decline was much greater and amounted to -7.7%. The strengthening of the Mexican peso was due to the Bank of Mexico raising its rate from 11% to 11.25%. This happened despite a decrease in Mexican inflation in February to +7.62% y/y, the lowest level since March 2022. The strengthening of the South African rand was due to the South African Reserve Bank raising its rate from 7.25% to 7.75%. This level is higher than South African inflation in February, which was +7% y/y. The strengthening of the British pound was due to UK GDP growth in the fourth quarter of 2022, which was +0.6% y/y. This was better than expected (+0.4%). The Japanese yen weakened against the backdrop of the risks of high inflation. In March, the Tokyo Consumer Price Index grew by +3.3% y/y, higher than expected (+2.7%).
