A Michael Pettis analysis argues that Beijing may use renminbi depreciation as one of its few responses to US trade threats. The RMB has fallen about 4% against the dollar in two weeks.
The report concludes that sustained depreciation would damage China's economy more than the US, so a prolonged slide is unlikely.
The view that China will limit yuan weakness suggests the currency may not keep eroding Chinese import purchasing power for US feed ingredients. This makes a sharp, lasting drop in the yuan less likely to drive further price pressure.
