China's yuan weakened against the dollar after a official factory survey showed the manufacturing PMI contracted for a fourth straight month in January. Long-dated government bond yields fell to their lowest in about 22 years on easing bets, and the PBOC set its midpoint at 7.1039.
A weaker yuan and wider rate gap with the US make dollar-priced imports from China costlier and signal weak Chinese demand, a mild negative for feed-ingredient demand.
After 398 past bullish macro events, Chinese Yuan (CNY per USD) moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (56% higher; middle half -0.3% to +0.5%), and +0.0% over 20.
