Mexican Peso in the FX markets pointing to a Hillary victory?


It was only a little over a week ago, when the FBI director came out with his pronouncement of new emails related to the Hillary Clinton's private server, that it took 19.9 pesos to "buy" a dollar in the foreign exchange markets. Apparently, many large investors felt that the FBI revelation could tip the election in favor of Trump. And a Trump win is perceived as being bad for Mexico

Now that that brouhaha has blown over, the peso is now stronger than it has been in August. One dollar is now worth about 18.2 pesos. That's a big change in eight days or so.

So that's how our president is selected!

So why are the talking heads on TV and radio wasting our time?

It's still the votes that decide it.

But it is interesting to see where "bets" are being made. Sometimes bets are lost.

Now, gold is spiking again as The Donald is doing much better than expected. And the peso is back to 19.5 in a little less than two hours. Unprecedented!!!!

The wall may have to be built with dollars instead of pesos!

Trump was not against Mexican people. He said he wanted to stop the flow of drugs across the Mx border. Sober people make the $ stronger, Nomans get more pesos and live a little cushier.

hillary = weak dollar

A guy in Tijuana was selling hillary for prison shirts a while back

Actually touched 20.6. And Trump still hasn't been declared the winner. But it is looking likely.

Where will it go if/when he is declared the winner?

Interesting times we live in!
I never could have imagined that a campaign based on hating immigrants and foreigners would sell so well.
I am dumbfounded that hate was what the voters wanted.
Well,America, you asked for it!
Let's see what trump does now... I think he is saying to himself, "oh, chit."

Peso has settled at around 19.8. The dollar, which weakened as the Trump victory seemed inevitable, has regain strength against the Euro.
