As China's monthly activity data disappoints offshore Chinese yuan (CNH) investors, the USD/CNH continues to draw buyers for a third consecutive day on Monday, advancing 0.23 percent intraday to 7.2850 as of press time. Concerns regarding covid difficulties in the dragon kingdom and apprehensions regarding a hawkish move by the Federal Reserve also encourage buyers to remain positive.

 

As a result, China's official NBS Manufacturing PMI for October dropped to 49.2, compared to the expected 50.0 and the previous 50.1. In addition, the Non-Manufacturing PMI fell to 48.7, below market estimates of 51.9 and previous readings of 50.6. Following the publication of the data, Reuters produced an article "In October, China's factory activity unexpectedly dropped, according to a survey released by the government on Monday. Global demand decline and strict COVID-19 regulations impeded manufacturing."

 

Due to the US dollar's status as a safe haven, the shutdown of a casino resort in Macau and Russian concerns also add to the USD/appreciation. Russia, which invaded Ukraine on February 24, halted its participation in the Black Sea agreement for a "indefinite period" on Saturday because it could not "guarantee the protection of civilian ships" traveling under the treaty after its Black Sea naval was attacked.

 

The fact that US Treasury yields are directionless after a bad economic report is notable, as is the fact that US stocks futures are seeing modest losses as the Dow Jones prepares for its highest monthly gain since 1976. In addition, the US Dollar Index (DXY) demonstrates a three-day increase near 110.80, with an intraday increase of 0.1% as of press time.

 

In conclusion, the USD/CNH bulls may maintain control because China's fundamentals are weaker than those of the United States. Concerns that the Fed may suggest slowing the pace of rate hikes beginning in December have recently appeared to test buyers of currency pairs.
