We Track near 7.2000 in early Thursday trade, comfortably up from late Asia Pac lows yesterday near 7.1810.

Morgan Index) firmed by 0.10% to 124.64.

  • Yesterday saw HK-China Stock Connect inflows, the highest net buying since Jul ’24 at CNY13.6bn, which was supportive for the yuan in Asia hours. Outside of quant trading curbs, reports also crossed of further trading restrictions, with BBG sources flagging a ban of net equity sales around market open and close. In US trade, the Golden Dragon index rebounded 0.97%.
  • The local data calendar just has SWIFT CNY payments data today. Tomorrow, we get Jan house prices, which will be in more focus. FDI figures for Jan are also due today/tomorrow.
