What moves USD/CNY
United States dollar (USD)
Set by the Federal Reserve (Fed). The United States dollar is the world's reserve currency; moves on Fed rate expectations, US jobs and inflation data, and global risk appetite.
Chinese yuan (CNY)
Set by the People's Bank of China (PBoC). The Chinese yuan is managed within a daily band around a fixing set by the PBoC, so it usually moves less than freely floating currencies.
When the USD strengthens against the CNY, USD/CNY rises. Interest-rate differences between the two central banks are usually the biggest long-term driver.
