Meanwhile, the Mexican peso currency has steadily strengthened to a five-month high against the U.S. dollar. The peso was trading around 12.87 per U.S. dollar.

DBMX has increased 4.8% over the past three-months. However, if the peso begins to depreciate against the U.S. dollar, investors could take a look at DBMX.
