China’s yuan midpoint was set at 6.7167 per dollar, 21 points higher than the previous day’s fixing. The midpoint remained about 510 points weaker than market forecasts.
A firmer yuan can modestly reduce the domestic cost of imported feed commodities, although the fixing’s gap from forecasts signals that appreciation is being managed. The reported change alone is unlikely to materially move commodity prices.
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.
