The MND Economy Index™, a composite index developed by MND Intelligence, published its September 2026 edition on July 2026. The index score rose to 73.1, marking a notable 6.2-point increase compared to the previous score. This composite index comprises ten pillars, each considered on a scale of 0 to 100, yielding a single score.
The index's colors, ranging from green to red, indicate the performance level of each pillar. The five pillars that improved scored green, while the other five declined and were colored red. For the first time, no pillar registered a red light score, indicating all pillars performed above the minimum benchmark. Inflation, leading the pillars, scored 9.68, up from 9.33 in June.
The Bank of Mexico's inflation forecast for July was 3.12%, close to the central bank's 3.0% target. The monetary policy pillar score dropped to 9.32 from 9.57 in June, mainly due to an increase in Mexico's real interest rate. The manufacturing sector health pillar improved to 7.9 from 6.9 in June, with a 1.6% annual growth rate in July.
Economic growth, formerly a red light pillar, now scores 7.6, up from 4.4 in June, after an annual growth rate of 3.3% in July.
