Currency Plunges To Peg Limit Against US Dollar, Strongest Against Euro In
14 Years 01-27-15 Zero Hedge
The drop in the Yuan over the past 2 days is the largest against the US
Dollar since Nov 2008 as USDCNY nears its highest (CNY weakest) since
mid-2012. What is more critical is that for the first time since the new
2% CNY peg bands, USDCNY is trading at the extremes - 11.5 handles
cheap to the fix. At the opposite end of the spectrum, the EURCNY
just dropped below 7.00 for the first time since June 2001 with the biggest
2-day strengthening of the Chinese currency against the Euro in almost 4
years. It appears the consequences of ECB QE, SNB volatility, and now Greek
concerns continue to ripple through the rest of the world.. and at a time
when China faces its ubiquitous new year liquidity squeeze, that is not a
good sign.
