Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

China’s central bank set the yuan’s daily midpoint at its weakest level since October 22, marking a renewed easing of the official fixing. The move extends a gradual softening in the reference rate that anchors onshore trading, with the midpoint guiding the currency’s permitted 2% trading band. The fixing matters because it signals how Beijing is balancing export competitiveness against capital-flow stability as the dollar stays firm. Traders will watch whether the weaker midpoint is followed by broader onshore depreciation and whether authorities lean on state banks to smooth volatility.
