What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Goods exports from Latin America and the Caribbean grew 19.5% year-on-year in the first half of 2026, surpassing the 14.5% increase in world trade. This growth was fueled by higher prices for oil and other commodities, alongside demand for artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure. Mexico led regional growth at 24.6%, largely due to sales of AI infrastructure equipment to the United States.
