    Mexico better prepared for a possible developed world recession this time, but risk/reward remains unattractive, given downside risk to US growth,Mexico earnings, and even Chile now cheaper. See our 27pg data tracker.

    This time is (a little) different: Crisis is EU centric (and China only 5%Mexico exports); no derivatives problems; public finances are healthier;the Central Bank has more reserves. However, the Streets Mexico GDPnumbers look too high, and the historical beta to US/EU GDP is 1.6x.US growth risks have eased but may return given the 1.7% fiscal drag in2012e and little sign of political consensus. Mexican monetary policy isset to do the heavy lifting, as fiscal policy stays tight. Its a long way off,

    but we do see reform upside from a July 2012 PRI presidential victory.

    Peso the crisis shock absorber to date, as EMs 3rd-most liquidcurrency, and 80% of the negative MSCI Mexico return in the last threemonths has come from the FX. Once again illustrating that whilst thestock market may be defensive, the FX is not. The peso is now,however, both technically and fundamentally undervalued.

    Too concerned on Spanish banks. They are lending, not retrenching,similar to Banamex/Citi in 2008/9. Spanish bank loans as percentage of GDP is only 5.9% (vs 21% in Chile) as financial penetration is so low.

    UW on economic and earnings downside and high valuations (higher than they look). Market has outperformed given its 0.8x beta, 63%

    staples/telcos index composition, and high S+P500 correlation. It will,however, significantly lag a multiple rerating-driven recovery. Mexico ismore expensive than Chile for first time in over a decade, despite Chileslower cost of capital, taxes, and higher growth. Mexicos P/E anddividend are more than one STD from average. Positioning is supportiveas market is a consensus UW and the Afores have not been buyers.

    Earnings expectations falling and remain exposed at near 3x nominalGDP growth. They have fallen from 31% to 19% in last four months, andwe see further downside as we head into earnings season. GDPexpectations remain too high. They should, however, outperform EMunder a worst case scenario, as they did by nearly 10pp in 2008/9.Large caps where earnings have not been cut include Alfa, Banorte,KOF, Modelo.Model portfolio: Walmex, Banorte, First Cash, Cemex, focused ondomestic consumer/financial intermediation stocks, with some USoptionality, as the EASI index has moved into positive territory.

    This time is (a little) differentFour reasons it is different this time around: 1) US is not center of the crisis (only5% of Mexico exports go to EU vs 80% to the US see Table 1 ); 2) No corporateswith toxic derivatives; 3) Public finances are healthier; and 4) Banxico hassignificantly more reserves (plus a $72 billion IMF credit line). Mexico is alsosomewhat under-exposed to another risk, that of a Chinese hard landing ( Fig. 1 ),with exports to China only 1.4% of exports (24.4% in Chile).

    Growth risks still significant, though. Yes, the crisis is emanating from Europe,where we forecast a mild recession, but US growth risks have not gone away (despiteshort-term relief from a rebounding EASI index) and arguably the biggest test is tocome, with a dramatic 1.7% GDP US fiscal drag expected in 2012 unless US

    politicians can reach a compromise (not looking likely today). We have the mostcautious GDP view on the Street, with only 2.5% Mexican GDP growth for 2012,

    below estimated 3% potential GDP. This is above our 1.3% US GDP forecast, whenthe historical GDP beta with the US/EU is 1.6x ( Table 3 ). This was starklyillustrated in 2009, when US GDP fell 2.6%, and Mexicos fell 6.1%. Mexicosoutlook is relatively supported by a more resilient manufacturing cycle givenimproved competitiveness, limited consumer downside given pent-up demand, andthe recovering credit cycle.

    Contagion channels likely more indirect through overall consumer and corporateconfidence, and tighter global credit conditions. Concern has especially focused onthe more than 40% of total consumer credit in Mexico that is from Spanish banks.However, they do not operate as foreign bank subsidiaries, are 95% locally funded,and overall financial intermediation (15%) is very low. Spanish banking loans as a

    percentage of GDP is only 5.9% (Chile is 21%). A large impact was not seen here in2008/9 with Banamex/Citibank, and the Spanish banks do not seem to haveretrenched YTD, though Bancomer is losing market share ( Table 4 ).

    The peso will come back ( Fig. 3 and 4 ). It has been the main shock absorber toweaker global growth prospects, as the 3rd-most liquid currency in EM after HongKong and Taiwan. The weaker peso has accounted for 80% of the negative 17% 3mMSCI Mexico return. It is significantly undervalued, both technically andfundamentally (and the one EM currency to have closely tracked fair value over time), though we do not expect any meaningful appreciation soon , given concernsabout global market volatility, as Banxico moves to ease rates, and with authorities

    not facing any inflation pressure. We now forecast a year-end 13.25 for 2011 and11.80 for 2012.

    Policy flexibility limits self imposed. We see limited though self imposed fiscaloptions, with a budget deficit target (-2.2%/GDP) only slightly lower than 2011elevels and with the fiscal responsibility law limiting any electoral spending.Therefore, monetary policy should do any heavy lifting, which is very doable giventhe benign inflation backdrop. Whilst this has likely been impacted by the FXdepreciation, the inflation pass-through is likely lower than historical. We expect a25-bp rate cut in the December meeting.

    EU centric, no derivatives,healthier public finances, morereserves. China only 5% Mexicoexports

    Mexico historical beta to US/EUGDP is 1.6x. US growth riskseased short term but may returngiven 1.7% fiscal drag in 2012

    Spanish banks still lending inMexico, not retrenching. Similar to Banamex/Citi in 2008/9

    Peso the shock absorber,accounting for 80% of negativeMSCI Mexico return, as EMs no3FX. Is now technically andfundamentally undervalued

    Monetary policy doing the heavylifting, as fiscal policy stays tight

    July 2012 elections coming into focus as a positive. Polls show the PRI stable at39% of voting intentions vs the PANs 19%. Ex-Mexico State Governor Pea Nieto

    remains the favorite, with popularity close to 50% vs 16% for PANs Vazquez Motaand 10% for PRDs Lopez Obrador, according to Mitofsky polling. The outlook for aPRI presidency, alongside controlling Congress, could open the possibility of executing a structural reform agenda, with fiscal and labor reform likely first.

    We remain UW Mexico on a combination of growth downside both to consensusGDP expectations (3.3% 2012 vs JPM 2.5%) and earnings (MSCI Mexico 12m Fwdgrowth is 19%, nearly 3x nominal GDP growth), and high valuations, which have

    been exacerbated by recent market outperformance and falling earnings. The marketshould moderately outperform on the downside but significantly lag the multiple-rerating-driven recovery we expect into 2012.

    Mexico has outperformed in local and US$ terms in the recent sell-off, as

    expected given its relatively low beta (0.8 vs EM), more defensive indexcomposition (63% staples and telcos), and high S+P500 correlation. Weakness has

    been led by materials, homebuilders, and financials. Outperformance has been led bynon-commodity weak peso beneficaries and relative defensives such as Modelo,Bimbo, and Televisa. Our Mexico Defensives basket has outperformed theCyclicals basket by near 18% in the last month. With the US EASI index back into

    positive territory, there is a case to add some cyclical risk ( Fig. 2 ).

    Valuations are very high. MSCI Mexico is trading on 13.8x 12m fwd earnings, anear 60% premium to Brazil, and one standard deviation over its long-term average.Its dividend yield is one standard deviation below its long-term average. It is alsotrading at a premium to Chile ( Fig. 5 ) for the first time in over a decade, despiteChiles lower cost of capital, tax rates, and higher potential GDP growth.

    Medium-term risks remain on the competitive environment, with the enhancedenforcement powers under the new antimonopoly law, and the 50%+ of Mexicanmarket cap that is potentially exposed to this given oligopolistic market positions.Some pricing of this enforcement risk should constrain multiples.

    Earnings downside still considerable. Comparing earnings now versus the 2008crisis. Peak 12m Fwd EPS growth was 25%, which fell to -9.3% by May 2009.Whilst dramatic, this EPS swing was moderate compared to peers Brazil (-44%),LatAm (-44.5%), and EM (-44.7%) as index composition is relatively defensive. Themore recent peak in Mexico earnings expectations was 31% in May, and this hascurrently fallen to 19%. Whilst a sharp decline, this still looks too high to us, at near 3x nominal GDP, with downside risks to consensus GDP in both the US and Mexico,and as we enter Q3 earnings season after at least two weak quarters of earningsreports from Mexico. Brazil 2011 earnings growth, by comparison, is less thannominal GDP and midsingle digits.

    Comparing stock EPS decline then vs now (Table 5 ). During the 2008-09 crisis,the largest EPS declines were seen at Penoles, Cemex, Grupo Mexico Alfa, Elektra,

    and Grupo Carso, which all saw their EPS fall over 50% peak to trough. Currentlythe only companies not to have seen earnings cut are Alfa, Inbursa, Banorte, KOF,Urbi, and Modelo.

    The market has moved to a consensus UW among EM investors, along with other export cyclical markets, such as Korea and Taiwan. Brazil remains the consensusOW in LatAm. The US$120bn Afore pension fund system remains heavily UW localequities (8.3% of AUM) and has been adding to foreign positions (10.5%). Fixedincome markets have also seen some unwind, with Mexican bonds well owned, andthe asset class seeing meaningful outflows.

    The Mexico component of our model portfolio is Walmex, Banorte, First Cash,and Cemex. Walmex is trading at a sector average valuation, despite twice the

    profitability and similar growth rates, whilst consumer recovery expectations are low,durables demand rebounding, and pent-up demand high. Banorte is trading at under 10x next years earnings, with a robust cyclical credit recovery, supported by verylow credit penetration. First Cash remains an attractive combination of strong organicgrowth, natural multiple rerating, and high transparency. The recent pullback on

    perceived gold and FX exposures is overdone. Cemex valuations are at distressedlevels and equity optionality is high (10% of EV), especially with the US EASI indexin positive territory. US volume downside is arguably limited, the company FCF

    positive, with limited upcoming maturities, and a significant asset base.
