About Mid-month Core Inflation Rate MoM — Mexico
DEFINITION
The Mid-month Core Inflation Rate MoM is a key financial indicator that measures the change in the average price of goods and services, excluding volatile items such as food and energy, during the middle of the month compared to the previous month. This indicator provides valuable insights into the overall inflation trends and helps investors and policymakers make informed decisions about the economy. It is considered a reliable measure of core inflation and is closely monitored by financial experts and analysts.
WHY THIS INDICATOR MATTERS
Inflation prints feed directly into central-bank policy expectations and real-yield calculations, and are among the most rate-sensitive releases on the calendar. The release is more useful as part of a longer-run signal than as a single-print catalyst. Released monthly.
WHAT CHANGED THIS MONTH
Latest reading (May 2026): actual 0.13 %, consensus 0.17 %. Prior reading (Apr 2026): 0.18 %. Before that (Mar 2026): 0.22 %.
WHAT'S NEXT
Sigmacast's 1-month forecast points to a lower reading versus the latest print, with the 3-month outlook reinforcing that direction. Both horizons are aligned bearish for this indicator, suggesting a consistent trend signal. Trend-driven dynamics are the primary headwind in the current projection.
