America classifies China as a currency manipulator for the first time in decades
6th August 2019
US Treasury Secretary Stephen Menuchin said in a statement that the US government has decided to consider China manipulative in its currency and will engage with the International Monetary Fund to eliminate unfair competition by Beijing
The move has further aggravated the already tense relations between the two countries and is in fulfillment of President Donald Trump's pledge to label China as a currency manipulator for the first time since 1994
The US move comes after China allowed its yuan to drop below seven against the dollar on Monday for the first time in more than a decade. Beijing later said it would stop buying US farm produce, a major escalation in a nearly year-old trade war with the United States
The sharp 1.4 percent drop in the yuan came days after Trump abruptly imposed a 10 percent tariff on imports from China worth $ 300 billion on Thursday, triggering a shock to financial markets after a brief truce in their trade war
The news pushed the dollar sharply lower while supporting gold
The US Treasury said a statement by the People's Bank of China on Monday made it clear that Chinese authorities exercised extensive control over the yuan's exchange rate
The People's Bank of China said it would "continue to take necessary and targeted measures against (herd behavior) that may occur in the foreign exchange market
"This is an explicit acknowledgment by the People's Bank of China that he has extensive experience in currency manipulation and that he is still prepared to do so continuously," the US Treasury said
China had violated an obligation to refrain from devaluing for the purpose of influencing competition within the G20
Once a country has been classified as a currency manipulator, the Treasury is obliged to call for private talks to correct undervalued currency, including sanctions
The ministry designated Taiwan and South Korea as currency manipulators in 1988, the year Congress passed the Currency Review Act. China was the last country to be further classified in 1994 LINK
Senior US official: Trump is still looking for a deal with China
2019/8/18 18:11
Trump has kept the doors open for changes to new tariffs he plans to impose on Chinese goods if talks go well with China, top White House adviser Larry Kudlow said. "Trump is still planning to host the Chinese delegation in September to continue the talks," Kudlo said during an interview with CNBC. "Trump wants to make a deal with China,"he said, adding that it should be "correct."
The US official stressed that Washington is not currently considering any steps to respond to China's devaluation of the yuan to support its exports. The comments came after trade tensions between Beijing and Washington intensified in recent days, after Trump announced a plan to impose 10 percent new tariffs on Chinese goods worth $ 300 billion.
China met the Trump Declaration with a strong response and said it would stop importing agricultural products from the United States. The yuan was also down against the dollar on Monday to an 11-year low as a retaliatory measure, despite China's central bank's denial. LINK
