MERIDA, Mexico, March 17 (Reuters) - The Bank of
Mexico's governor Victoria Rodriguez said on Friday that
February inflation data is good news, underscoring that there is
more upcoming data that will need to be considered before the
bank's next monetary policy decision.
Mexico's core consumer prices slowed by more than expected
to 8.29% in the year to February, data from statistics agency
INEGI showed last week, providing some relief as Latin America's
second-largest economy grapples with high inflation and interest
rates.
