Chinese Yuan Strengthens As Industrial Profits Plunge By Most On Record

Tyler Durden's picture




 

After 2 days of dramatic weakness in the Chinese currency, the Yuan is strengthening modestly at the open following the 8% plunge year-over-year in Chinese Industrial Profits. This is the biggest drop n profits since Bloomberg data began and points to accelerating weakness in China's economy - in the face of the very modest rise in GDP recently. Chinese stocks slipped from a small positive to a smal lnegative in the pre-open, down around 0.1%.

 

Worst drop in Chinese profits YoY...

 

and a modest strengthening in the Yuan for now...

Since the yuan is pegged it has seen a lot of strenght lately.  China is loving the death of the euro.

Politically, maybe.  Economically, it's not good for them.  They export a ton to the EU/Euro-area countries.  Weakening Euro and strenghtening Yuan makes that tougher to do.  Their imports FROM Europe will be cheaper, though.

Chino middle class expansion is creating a domestic consumer demand that will soon rival their Euro- export business much like domestic demand fueled our economic expansion for decades.
