The iShares MSCI Mexico ETF (EWW), covering 39 stocks, has underperformed emerging market peers and global stocks this year. Its portfolio has shifted toward materials, especially Grupo Mexico B, which now makes up 16% of the fund and benefits from strong copper market conditions. Despite a rebound in Mexico's Q2 GDP, business and consumer confidence remain weak, and monetary easing support has diminished. The ETF trades at a 16% premium to emerging market peers but shows lower earnings growth, with recent price action losing its prior upward trend, suggesting a neutral investment stance.
