Why it matters
Cars are the biggest purchase most households make after a home, so sales are a sensitive gauge of confidence and credit conditions; used-car prices fed strongly into US inflation after 2020.
How it is calculated
Manufacturers' sales reports or official registration counts; prices from auction data.
What changes mean
- Sales fall when loan rates rise; watch the trend over several months.
Higher than expected: A stronger figure than expected points to a healthier economy: it usually supports the Mexican peso and local stocks, and can push bond yields up.
Lower than expected: A weaker figure than expected points to slowing activity: the Mexican peso tends to soften and markets price in lower rates.
A short history
Car sales became a key consumer indicator with mass motorisation after the Second World War.
