# China's yuan eases to 1-week low to reflect dollar rebound - Markets - Business Recorder

> The yuan eased to a one-week low against a rebounding dollar on Monday, with the PBOC setting its midpoint at a one-week low of 6.4764. Traders said the move tracked higher US yields and stimulus hopes, and the market paused after a sharp rally that followed a near 7% gain in 2020.

## Why it matters

A weaker yuan against a stronger dollar makes dollar-priced US feed commodities more expensive for Chinese importers, a mild negative for demand. The move is a currency-market reaction with no direct supply change.
