China sets yuan midpoint at 6.7787, up 20 pips
AI take
The marginal upward adjustment in the yuan midpoint signals a steady, managed approach rather than a decisive shift, keeping the currency's trading band in check. This matters for market participants tracking capital flows and export competitiveness, as the official fix sets the tone for daily trading. The narrow gap between the fix and the close suggests limited speculative pressure, but whether the central bank maintains this gradual pace amid external headwinds is the open question.
