• USD/ CNY strengthened on Friday as China's yuan slipped on back of U.S. President Donald Trump's latest tariff comments.
• Trump announced that 25% tariffs on Mexican and Canadian goods, along with a 10% duty on Chinese imports, will take effect Tuesday due to ongoing drug flows into the U.S.
• The new China tariffs, along with the 10% tariff from February 4, coincide with the start of China's annual parliamentary meetings on Wednesday, where Beijing is expected to outline its economic priorities for 2025.
• The announcement gives Beijing less than a week to respond, as Trump's administration toughens its stance, despite backing down from a 60% tariff threat earlier.
