The Chinese yuan weakened against the U.S. dollar in the Asian
session on Tuesday.
Traders remain cautiously optimistic on the outlook for markets
after the U.S.-China temporary trade truce. They now stay focused
on the outcome of US trade negotiations with India and Japan. Some
traders also locked in profits following the recent upside in the
markets.
China also cut its benchmark lending rates for the first time in
7 months to boost its struggling economy amid rising trade
tensions.
The People's Bank of China (PBOC), China's central bank,
announced a reduction in Loan Prime Rates (LPRs) today. The
one-year LPR was reduced from 3.1% to 3.0%, while the five-year LPR
was decreased from 3.60% to 3.50%.
Against the U.S. dollar, the yuan fell to an 8-day low of 7.2248
from Monday's closing value of 7.2159.
If the yuan extends its downtrend, it is likely to find support
around the 7.28 region.
The Chinese central bank sets central parity rate every morning
and allows the yuan to fluctuate up to 2 percent from that
level.
