 The Mexican Peso is poised to end Tuesday’s session with solid gains of 0.32% against the US Dollar as money markets await the release of the US July inflation figures, while the USD/MXN trades at 17.08, hitting a fresh 25-month low, a level last seen in June 2024. 
 <h2 class="fxs_headline_from_medium_to_large">USD/MXN weakens on stronger-than-expected Mexican output and hopes of a Fed pause, with traders awaiting US inflation data</h2> 
 Mexico’s Industrial Output for June improved from a -0.8% contraction to 0.2%, beneath forecasts of 0.3%. In the twelve months to June, output exceeded forecasts for a 1.1% increase, was 1.7%, crushing May’s -0.7% print. 
 The improvement of the data provided a leg down in the USD/MXN. Still, traders refrained from driving the exchange rate past the 17.00 milestone as they await the release of July’s US inflation data. 
 On Wednesday, the US economic calendar includes the release of inflation data. Expectations indicate that headline inflation will decline slightly from 3.5% to 3.4% year-over-year, while core figures are also expected to slow down from 2.6% to 2.5% over the twelve months ending in July. 
 If the data comes softer than expected, this would be positive for the Mexican Peso. The Federal Reserve would not need to increase rates, and, as a result, amid the ongoing disinflation process, the interest rate differential will still favour the emerging-market currency. 
 The US Dollar index (DXY), which tracks the performance of the buck against six currencies, sits at 99.80 after touching a two-month low of 99.40. 
 Based on the Citi Mexico expectations survey, all analysts predict Banxico’s key policy rate will stay steady at 6.50% by the end of the year. The median forecast also suggests that the USD/MXN exchange rate will close this year at 17.90.

 <div> USD/MXN daily chart 
 </div> 
 In the daily chart, USD/MXN trades at 17.0688, extending its slide beneath the clustered simple moving averages, with the latest triple SMA reading around 17.3972 acting as overhead resistance. The pair also remains capped by a descending trend-line resistance coming in near 17.4359, while the Relative Strength Index (14) at 29.4 slips into oversold territory, hinting that bearish momentum is stretched but still dominant as long as spot holds below these structural caps. 
 On the downside, immediate focus sits on the current area around 17.07 as a pivotal level, with a deeper support zone emerging near the former resistance-turned-floor around 15.65 should selling pressure accelerate. On the topside, a recovery would first need to reclaim the triple simple moving average cluster at 17.40, followed by a break above the descending trend-line hurdle near 17.44 to ease the bearish bias and open room for a more sustained corrective bounce.

 Aster activates AOS-2, creating a route for projects seeking perpetual markets while tying applications to ASTER staking. The framework replaces private talks with eligibility checks, token commitments, validator votes, and on-chain records. 
 Projects must qualify under Aster’s rules before proposing a perpetual contract. Each applicant must stake 1 million ASTER for four years before validators consider its proposal. 
 However, rejected proposals receive the full stake back. Aster has not disclosed the voting duration or approval threshold. Additionally, successful applicants cannot exit early. 
 Once validators approve a proposal, Aster’s risk team configures leverage, margin, liquidation, and other trading controls. Consequently, approval does not immediately open the market. 
 Aster plans to launch perpetual contracts on T+1 after completing market setup. The platform has not clarified whether T+1 means a calendar day. 
 Moreover, AOS-2 gives ASTER a stronger role. The fixed requirement also makes application costs fluctuate with ASTER’s market value. 
 Besides, AOS-2 follows AOS-1, which established public criteria for spot listings.
