I would have brought back buckets of silver pesos that cost me 8 cents a piece . What would the melt value be today ? They were the size and weight of silver dollars , and I loved the feeling in my hand along with the clinking they made .

The first three months of this year (2024), it traded between 16.80 and 17.30 per dollar; and then an early spring rally brought the peso close to 16.

Now it is trading above 20 to the dollar.

This will end very badly, but AMLO will be gone

Mexico is a major exporter of food, and seems to have survived recent climate disasters fairly well. I’m a Canadian, and we have suffered major crises like the complete loss of grape crops in the whole of BC, and droughts in the Prairies, so our consumers welcome Mexican produce whenever we find it in the supermarket. That has to affect the trade balance, and this of course drives the exchange rate.

With the apreciation of the mexican peso travel become more afortable also buying properties.
I’m going to be able to pay the loan of my appartment on decemebr of this year (2024). I’m 34 years old.
Now I’m thinking to invest my money in another property around the country. Of course, I’ve been working hard to achieve my goals, but certainly as a regular citizen of Mexico I’m expecting the government continue fighting against the corruption and all of us needs to support this, for a better country and better communities.

The U.S. didn’t get soft landing they lie. Mexico can’t hold no more us debt Mexican banks need to dump dollar and trade oil like Russia. The bad news is stagflation won’t go, fiat currency will plunge and we will suffer.

They Know more than J.P Morgan and Sachs. They can’t help themselves the money looks so good to them. The peso is being overvalued at the expense of the Mexican people. This is how you run a country? It is at $17.10 to $1 today and still going down. These theft are still trying to say they know more than anyone. He is like another president of Mexico years ago. The people were looking in one direction and he stole in the other direction. When he finished he left the country with the people’s money. The difference is, this president is afraid to leave the country out of fear not being able to return. Don’t believe me, when was the last time he left Mexico? If you believe this guy, I want sell you a little bridge, called the Brooklyn bridge.
