Our hypothesis is that capital flows create inflationary processes in the Mexican securities market, which is theoretically associated with instability conditions that hinder the financing of real investment. Results of a distributed-lag model (ARDL), applied to the period 2009-2019, indicate that foreign equity investment is positively related to the deviation of share prices from their long-term inflation trend, providing an empirical proof of stock market inflation. Meanwhile, flows coming from the Mexican retirement funds are negatively related, functioning as price market shock-absorbers, arguably because of its long run investment strategy. These findings constitute evidence to open a research agenda on financial policies to improve the contribution of retirement funds in the productive sector financing.
