Why is the RMB appreciating rapidly in this period?HuataisecurityThe research report noted that in addition to the impact of year-end corporate foreign exchange settlements, US retail and inflation data were lower than expected, the convergence of the China-US interest rate differential, and a confidence boost from China. The consolidation of domestic financial institutions, etc., are the driving forces for the recent appreciation of the offshore RMB.
CICC’s research report believes that changes in the external environment may be a more important reason for the rebound of the RMB exchange rate. The RMB exchange rate is currently in a “post-growth” state and is not strengthening alone. The report also said that the current market trend of the RMB is not over yet, as there are still several key factors supporting the RMB before the end of the year, including seasonal foreign exchange settlement, export recovery and the rise in the US dollar index. There may be further decline.
Great Wall Securities also pointed out that from the overseas perspective, the US Treasury bond yield center is expected to continue to decline. With the fact that China-US relations have entered a new stage, the trend of periodic appreciation of the RMB exchange rate is improving.
