“The rising risk of a US-China trade war has put downward pressure on the CNY and we now see more CNY weakness ahead”.

“Yesterday, we revised our USD/CNY and EUR/CNY forecasts higher, targeting USD/CNY at 6.70 in 12M (previously 6.25) and EUR/CNY at 8.38 in 12M (previously 7.94) amid further easing by the People’s Bank of China (PBoC) and outflows are set to pick up.
