   The peso is the monetary unit of several countries in the Americas, and the Philippines. Originating in the Spanish Empire, the word peso translates to "weight". In most countries the peso uses the same sign, "$", as many currencies named "dollar". The sign "₱" is used in the Philippines. The silver peso worth eight reales was also known in English as a Spanish dollar or "piece of eight" and was a widely used international trade coin from the 16th to the 19th century.

Examples of peso in a Sentence

1. Win Thin:

   It's a very small market, ever since Macri reopened the markets, took some market-friendly measures, there's been a trickle of activity back in the peso and Argentine assets in general. Money has been trickling back in but it is still very minimal.

2. Makoto Noji:

   Considering that emerging economies, from the Indian rupee to the Chilean peso, have been a source of concern for the world economy, their recovery is positive for both emerging economies as well as risk assets as a whole, yet, there is no structural change in China's efforts to cut excessive investments... We should be wary of the possibility that the rally in risk assets driven by easing expectations of a Fed rate hike will run out of steam.

3. Domingo Cavallo:

   Each peso [or dollar] is a contract between the government and the peso holder. That contract guarantees that each peso -- as a unit of value that the holder has worked hard to get -- will be worth as much tomorrow as today. If the government breaks the contract, it's breaking the law. The only role of government in the economy should be to guarantee the integrity of market transactions.

4. David Johnson:

   AMLO has working majorities in Mexicos legislature, so he could conceivably move forward with this, i suspect, however, that should this get legislative legs, the market would punish the peso in such a way that it would prove very costly.

5. Gabriela Soni:

   But if it's only a 5% tariff instead of 25% it might not be a game changer because the peso has also depreciated.
