The article provides an overview of Mexico's macroeconomic performance in 2025, focusing on the economic indicators during the first year of Claudia Sheinbaum's presidency. As typical in the initial years of a new administration, the country has faced challenges with economic growth, and this year has proven particularly tough. Initial estimates suggest that the economy grew by only 0.5% compared to the previous year, which is significantly lower than the average growth rate experienced in the 21st century (1.6% from 2001 to 2024) and even below the growth rate of the previous six-year term (1%).

In addition to the GDP growth figure, the analysis highlights a concerning aspect regarding the per capita GDP, which shows no growth in 2025. This indicates that while the country's overall production may register some increase, it is being distributed among a larger population, resulting in no improvement in the average availability of goods and services for individual Mexicans. The stagnation in per capita income reflects a potential decline in living standards and raises significant concerns about economic policies moving forward under Sheinbaum's government.

The article's findings are crucial since they show the economic difficulties that lay ahead for the current administration and the pressing need for effective policy reforms to address structural issues contributing to sluggish economic performance. As Claudia Sheinbaum continues her term, addressing these macroeconomic challenges will be critical for improving the overall welfare of the population and moving towards sustainable economic growth.
