Exports to the States saw an increase of 24.8% and those to Panama saw an increase of 67.6%. Exports from January to May were $22.03 billion, a 36.1% increase.

Car sales in the first half of the year were 158,217, a 47.8% increase over the first half of 2010. Sales in June specifically broke the record for the most ever in the summer month.

The peso is again nearing its resistance level around 1750 as it closed today at 1,760.45.
