MNI: China CFETS Weekly RMB Index: -0.4% Year to Date

     BEIJING (MNI) - China's weekly Renminbi Index versus 24 trade-weighted
currencies was published Monday by the China Foreign Exchange Trading System,
the central bank unit that runs the country's interbank market.  
     The index dipped 0.15% to 94.45 last week, after a 0.22% increase the
previous week. 
     As of Friday, Dec. 15, the yuan had depreciated 0.4% against the
24-currency basket since Dec. 30, 2016, according to MNI calculations. 
     From its inception in January 2014 until Dec. 31, 2016, CFETS included 13
currencies in its trade-weighted basket. From Jan. 1, 2017 the basket was
expanded to include 24 currencies. 
     CFETS did not publish the 13-currency basket after Dec. 31, 2016 or the
24-currency basket before Jan. 1, 2017. CFETS skipped the publishing on Oct. 6
2017 due to the National Day Holiday.
