The tension between Israel and Iran has sent shockwaves through global markets, with the Mexican peso experiencing a sharp depreciation against the dollar in recent days. Economic experts are warning of a potential inflationary rebound if the conflict between the two Middle Eastern nations escalates further.
According to Ruiz-Healy Grupo Formula, a prolonged and complicated conflict between Israel and Iran could have significant economic consequences, leading to a spike in prices and a decrease in the value of the peso. The BMV has been operating erratically as investors react to the uncertainty in the region, while Forbes Mexico reports that the peso has already experienced a sharp decline in response to the conflict.
