The purpose of this paper is to study the behavior trend and memory of the prices of the shares that make up the S&P/BMV IPC index of the Mexican stock market, as well as the behavior of returns over time, for this purpose applies the Jarque-Bera test as a normality test, which shows non-normality in the returns generated by the stations, and mainly the Hurst exponent as a measure of price memory, with which it is concluded that 32 of 34 stations of the index show a persistent behavior, with a momentum or trend in the same direction and 6 of 8 issuers in the sector under study have the same behavior.
