China Market Monito: Stocks and CNY Taking a Hit

Fundamental analysis of Forex market

To help keep track of developments in Chinese financial markets, we publish a brief China Market Monitor covering FX, fixed income, money markets and equities.

Financial stress has risen sharply since the trade conflict with the US escalated on 15 June. CNY and equities have tumbled and bond yields are lower following monetary easing through reductions of the reserve ratio requirements (RRR) for banks.
