# China’s yuan touches 3-week low, looks set for biggest weekly drop since July - Markets - Business Recorder

> China's onshore yuan fell to a three-week low of 7.1369 per dollar, its weakest since September 5. It was on track for its biggest weekly loss since mid-July as broad dollar strength lifted the greenback. Some state banks were reported buying dollars in the spot market.

## Why it matters

A weaker yuan makes Chinese purchases of dollar-priced feed inputs slightly more expensive, which can weigh on import demand at the margin. The effect on grain prices is modest because the move is driven mainly by dollar strength.
