This significant downward revision reflects growing anxieties surrounding the potential for further imposition of tariffs by the Trump administration. The decision was announced by Governor Victoria Rodriguez, who emphasized that while the Mexican economy is currently experiencing a period of stagnation, it is not yet in a recessionary state. "The threat of additional tariffs remains, and this has influenced our revised forecast," Rodriguez stated.
