The scale of reverse repos has been lowered to a few billion yuan from an integer multiple of 10 billion, and the frequency of changes has also increased, the newspaper said. The market should neither interpret the injection of CNY3 billion as a signal of tightening, nor should the injection of 12 billion yuan be understood as a signal of relaxation, the newspaper said citing Cheng Qiang, chief macro analyst of CITIC Securities.
