The yuan firmed in a tight range on August 29 as investors awaited key Chinese economic data and US inflation and payrolls figures. The PBOC continued setting the daily fixing at stronger-than-expected levels, and the yuan is down over 5% this year.
Currency stability supports Chinese import purchasing power, while the upcoming data could signal demand strength for feed commodities.
After 362 past bearish macro events, Chinese Yuan (CNY per USD) moved a median -0.1% over 5 sessions (42% higher; middle half -0.4% to +0.1%), and -0.2% over 20.
