China’s central parity rate for the yuan weakened 20 pips to 6.7188 per U.S. dollar on Monday. The rate is set from a weighted average of market-maker prices before the interbank market opens.
A weaker yuan can make Chinese imports more expensive in local currency and improve the competitiveness of exports. The reported move was small, with no direct feed-commodity price effect identified.
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.
