CHINA YUAN: USDCNH is trading around 6.71 as bears keep the pressure on the 6.70
level. Below here would open a run at the 6.60 level which marks the July 10
low. EURCNH recovered 7.70 on the back of the Fed decision, but the broader
downtrend remains intact, as does the rise in China's REER. 
- While the authorities will not welcome the ongoing yuan strength, there are
signs of stabilization in the economy with manufacturing and non manufacturing
PMIs both beating expectations today coming in at 49.5 and 54.7 respectively.  
- The more dovish Fed outlook has provided more room for the PBOC to ease which
has seen swap rates edge lower this morning, but US-China swap spreads remain
lower following the sharp move lower in the US. 
- Trade talk headlines look set to dominate over the coming days while the
Caixin PMI is also due out this time tomorrow.
