Polymarket traders price a February Mexico unemployment rate of 2.6% at 45.6% implied probability, closely trailed by ≤2.4% (31.0%) and 2.5% (21.5%), reflecting steady labor market dynamics after January's 2.6% reading from INEGI—the lowest since mid-2023 amid robust formal job creation of over 110,000 positions announced last week. This positioning stems from resilient economic growth, with Q4 2023 GDP expansion at 3.2% annualized and manufacturing PMI holding above 50, signaling ongoing hiring despite global headwinds. Banxico's recent 50 basis point rate cut to 11% supports a soft landing narrative, though upcoming INEGI release on March 29 could shift sentiment if informal sector data surprises. Consensus economist forecasts cluster near 2.6%, underscoring trader alignment with base rates from prior months.
