# China's Yuan Strengthens to Near 3-Year High Amid US Dollar Uncertainty (2026)

> The offshore yuan traded at 6.867 per US dollar, its strongest since April 2023, while the PBoC set the midpoint at 6.9321, its strongest since May 2023. The move reflects easing US-China trade tensions and expectations of lower US interest rates. The fixing has trended weaker than offshore levels, suggesting Beijing is limiting how fast the currency rises.
