The IBEX 35 index has shown a strong upward trend, surpassing the 12,900-point mark for the first time since 2008, closing at 12,911 points with a gain of 1.07%. This rise is attributed to positive market sentiment and significant contributions from the banking sector. Meanwhile, the Mexican peso has faced volatility, recently trading at 20.61 pesos per dollar after a decline of 0.32% due to inflation data from the United States and concerns over potential reciprocal tariffs proposed by former President Donald Trump. The peso's performance reflects broader market anxieties regarding trade relations and economic policies, as it has fluctuated between 20.57 and 20.6190 pesos per dollar in recent sessions.
