Mexico City — The National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI) reported that the Consumer Confidence Indicator (CCI) in Mexico reached 46.7 points in August 2025, its highest level so far this year. The figure represented a monthly increase of 0.7 points, showing a recovery, although it remains 0.7 percent below the level recorded in August 2024.
The greatest progress was observed in expectations about the country's future economic situation and in households' willingness to acquire durable goods, such as appliances and furniture. These items grew by one and 1.1 points respectively, reaching 48.7 and 33.3 units.
In contrast, the current perception of the national economy retreated by 3.2 points in its annual comparison, while future expectations for the country fell by 2.5. Regarding households, present and future evaluations were reduced marginally.
Expectations and Consumption Show Mixed Signals
Despite declines in some indicators, the report highlighted that households' current possibilities for making purchases grew by 2.7 points in the annual comparison. This increase reflects greater consumer confidence in acquiring higher-value products.
The complementary indicators yielded divided results. There were setbacks in expectations regarding employment, savings, vacations, and immediate purchases of clothing or footwear. However, the perception of price behavior improved, reducing concerns about inflation.
The data collection was carried out in 2,336 urban households nationwide, in a joint effort by INEGI and the Bank of Mexico. Analysts indicate that decreasing inflationary pressures and stability in the labor market could be key factors in sustaining the rebound in confidence in the coming months.
