Yuan Devaluation?

China At A Critical Turning Point: Could The Yuan Devalue?

 

For more than five years, until March of this year, Asian currency volatility has been unusually low. We previously suggested that a de facto ‘Asian Euro’ had formed as a pathway that could allow the Chinese Yuan to challenge the US dollar in cross-border markets. Since the Ukraine invasion, at least, the US dollar has been weaponized. A stronger US dollar has heaped pressure on the Yuan, forcing China to tighten policy at a time when her economy is reeling from C-19 lockdowns. This could end badly with a Chinese recession and/or Yuan devaluation.

China and Emerging Market Liquidity December Update: China, The US Dollar and Emerging Markets

-
China and Emerging Market Liquidity Update: China, The US Dollar and Emerging Markets   Emerging Market Liquidity conditions improved noticeably in November 2023, according to the jump in our EMLI™ index to a reading of 55.1. This rise was underpinned by buoyant cross-border capital inflows from foreign investors (index 68.6); an impressive rebound in private sector liquidity generation (index 54.1), reflecting signs of firming commodity markets, and further signs of easing by regional Central Banks (index 63.7), noticeably China (index 72.1). This provides a solid base for prospective EM stock market gains in 2024.       See our latest published research, China and Emerging Market Latest GLI™ – December 2023   For further information, please contact us at research@crossbordercapital.com

US Dollar 2024 Outlook: Vulnerable to Looser Fed, But Supported by Strong Uptrend in Capital Flows   Structural capital inflows underpin the uptrend in the real trade-weighted US dollar basket.

Global Liquidity Update - December 2023: Devastation or Liquidity Deluge?   Our Global Liquidity Index (GLI™) hit 25.9 at end-November 2023. This step-up in the pace of expansion confirms the steady liquidity uptrend in-place since October 2022. It underpins the bull market in risk assets. Many remain sceptical of holding risk assets, nervous that the World economy is about to plunge into the dark abyss of recession.
