• The People's Bank of China set the midpoint rate   at 6.7580 per dollar, its strongest since February 3, 2023. The spot yuan is allowed to trade 2% either side of the fixed midpoint each day.

• The yuan is up 0.2% against the dollar this month, and 4.2% firmer this year, hovering around a multi-year high of 6.70, benefiting from strong exports and dollar weakness..

• Meanwhle,the dollar clung to a seven-week high on Thursday after the ​Fed raised interest rates by a quarter overnight and flagged more hikes in coming months..
