Mexico's economy shrank 0.6% in the first quarter of 2026, following a revised 0.7% expansion in the previous quarter. The contraction beat analyst expectations of a 0.8% decline, according to data released by the national statistics agency INEGI on Friday. The broad-based slowdown across major sectors suggests fading domestic momentum rather than an isolated shock.
