Real-time insight of emerging markets in CEMEA, Asia and LatAm region.
USD/CNH extended its pullback post Tuesday's Asia close, before finding support around 6.8600 in US trade. We track near 6.8790 in early Wednesday dealings, after posting a 0.12% gain for Tuesday's session. We are back under the 20-day EMA, but firmer resistance has been evident around the 50-day EMA (6.9310). On the downside, outside of Tuesday lows, late Feb lows were at 6.8267. The DXY and BBDXY indices lost ground in Tuesday trade, but recovered from lows in US trade as oil rebounded amid conflicting Strait of Hormuz reports. This filtered through to USD/CNH which is still following broader USD trends. * Spot USD/CNY ended at 6.8685 on Tuesday, while the CNY CFETS basket tracker was at 99.46, off recent highs of 99.90, in line with lower risk aversion and softer USD index levels. Still, crosses like CNH/JPY remain in firm uptrends, with the pair close to an upside test of 23.00 (last 22.976). * Yesterday's strong export data/healthy trade balance, should reinforce a firmer yuan backdrop, particularly ahead of US President Trump's planned visit to China in a few weeks. * CNH seasonality is typically weaker in March and April, but such trends may not appear, at least until post Trump's visit (he is due to arrive on March 31). * On the data front, we await Feb new loans/aggregate finance figures (due between now and Mar 14).
