Latin American stocks and currencies were mixed on Wednesday amid fresh strains in the China-US relationship, with Brazil's real recovering slightly from two-week lows hit last session.
Brazil's real rose 0.2% and the Mexican peso gained 0.1%, while most other regional currencies fell against a steady dollar.
Technicals show that Mexico's peso is on the cusp of a much bigger rally. Wall Street fell and stock markets in Brazil and Chile followed. Those in Colombia and Mexico gained.
The Colombian peso slipped 0.2%. Morgan Stanley analysts are watching for a ruling this week by Colombia's constitutional court on the legality of a financing law that was approved late year.
