Our Itaú Activity Surprise Index declined slightly to -0.28 in May (from -0.26 in April). Brazil’s component weakened once again to -0.58, due to lower-than-expected prints for industrial production and year-over-year GDP growth, dragging the entire LatAm index down. Chile’s component improved in May – though remained negative - with lower-than-expected retail sales. Colombia, Mexico and Peru components all posted positive surprise.
