Free AccessOffshore Yuan Rangebound, CFETS Index Tracker Hits Multi-Year High
Spot USD/CNH has been moving within the confines of yesterday's range thus far, posing no real threat to a fresh cycle low of CNH6.3249 printed at the start to the week.
- The PBOC set the yuan reference rate at CNY6.3418, just 8 pips above average estimate, even as the official index of yuan strength against a basket of currencies hit the highest level since 2015.
- USD/CNH changes hands +24 pips at CNH6.3361. Bulls look to a breach of CNH6.3625/26, which limited gains on Jan 18/19, before targeting Jan 6/Nov 26 highs of CNH6.3976/99. Bears need a dip through yesterday's cycle low of CNH6.3249 before taking aim at May 11, 2018 low of CNH6.3198.
- Participants look ahead to the release of industrial profits (Thursday) as well as official PMIs & Caixin M'fing PMI (Sunday), before China begins the Lunar New Year holiday.
