Key arguments

  • Gross fixed investment extended gains for a fourth month in July, up 6.6% y/y, though slower than the prior 7.7%.
  • Machinery and equipment rose 6.2% y/y, entirely driven by a 11.5% jump in imported equipment as the domestic component fell 2.5%.
  • Private consumption moderated to 1.1% y/y from 2.1%, with imported goods nearly stalling at 0.1% as semi-durable and nondurable imports contracted 3.4%.
  • January-July investment grew 1.7% y/y while consumption rose 2.0% y/y, the latter supported by an 8.1% rise in imported goods.
