Voto de confianza en enero Nuestra lectura del mercado ─ Optimismo en los mercados de EUA tras avances en las negociaciones comerciales con China. Las pláticas continuarán la próxima semana en Washington. En EUA el S&P 500 subió 2.3% y el DJIA 2.8%; mientras que México se ajustó 0.4% en pesos (-1.4% en dólares; el peso se depreció 0.9%). ¿Bolsa atractiva?…La renta fija dice que todavía no ─ Se comparó el rendimiento desde 2008 de las utilidades de la Bolsa en México (earnings yield o inverso del múltiplo P/U) contra el rendimiento o yield del Bono M a 10 años. El difícil entorno del mercado global en términos comerciales, las dudas en cuanto al crecimiento económico global, la política monetaria restrictiva la Fed, la incertidumbre interna, entre otros factores, hacen que rendimiento de las utilidades de la Bolsa en México no luzca su mejor versión, al ubicarse en 5.9% vs. ~8.5% del bono M a 10 años, aunque se reconoce que el diferencial entre ambos se ha recortado ~100pb en los últimos cinco meses. Flujos de extranjeros a la renta variable nacional ─ Tras el fuerte ajuste del mercado en 2018 (-15.6%), y apoyados por una menor aversión al riesgo en mercados emergentes, los extranjeros dieron el voto de confianza al mercado local al traer flujos por más de US$500 millones en enero que ayudaron al índice a subir 5.6% en el primer mes del año.

It argues that they have become one of the main and most powerful forces for the integration of the country in the global capitalist system. Globalising processes lived and promoted by the Mexican business class are contradictory in several respects: on one hand, modernisation, institutionalisation and depersonalisation of corporate structures and of the system of business representation; is hindered by business clientelism and corruption in party funding.
