Weekly Fundamental Forecast for USD/CNH (based on the article)USD/CNH - "On China’s side, the calendar next week is packed with December Consumer Price Index (CPI), monetary supply, New Yuan Loans and trade gauges. The proportion of home loans to New Yuan loans soared once again in November, to 85.5%. The increased risk of price bubbles, especially seen in the housing market, is the key reason that China’s Central Bank tweaked its credit strategy from loosening to tightening and mainly uses open market operations to provide liquidity. A breakdown of the CPI print will also help to show which sectors expanded fast in prices and whether they are reasonable."

Chinese Currency: Keeping the masses happy (based on the article)
- "The natural direction for the yuan, if it were allowed to float, would be significantly lower against the US dollar than it is today. The Chinese are manipulating their currency, but they are manipulating it to maintain its current value and allow it to slowly fall to its natural rate."
- "Further, some $2 trillion worth of Chinese currency has been converted into dollars and moved offshore in the last few years. Think about that in the context of quantitative easing and realize that individual Chinese sloshing money around the developed world impact the global economony to the same extent central banks do."
- "The US is the world’s largest economy because we create most of our own supply and demand. It took us many decades to reach that point; China is trying to do it in about two decades. Their export-heavy model can’t work much longer, but they don’t yet have a way to create sustainable internal demand."
By the way, the weekly pric is still on bullish trend located above 200 period SMA: the price was bounced from 6.9867 resistance level to below for the secondary ranging within 6.98/6.78 levels.

Weekly Fundamental Forecast for USD/CNH (based on the article)USD/CNH - "Next week, Chinese President Xi will attend Davos’ Forum as the first Chinese president. When there is a major national event for China, Yuan volatility tends to drop, such as what was seen during the G20 meetings in China last September. Also, at the Davos’ meeting, President Xi may address major Chinese policies as well as comment on China’s global role, both worth keeping an eye on. Currently, the USD/CNH is waiting for justifications for a new trend; China’s economic outlook and policy in 2017 may provide more clues."

China Economy Becoming More Strict (based on the article)
USD/CNH daily price was bounced from 6.7808/6.7887 support levels to above: the price is located inside Ichimoku cloud for the ranging market condition. If the price breaks 6.8697 resistance levels on close daily bar so the bulliush reversal of the daily prrice movement may be started, otherwise - ranging inside Ichimoku cloud for the waiting for direction.
- "Over the last two weeks, since the World Economic Forum in Davos, China has been heralded as the world's savior of globalization. The country's leader, Xi Jinping, was the first Chinese president to ever attend the Forum, where he was cheered for touting the wonders of open markets. To many investors, he was a refreshing reminder of the reliable rules of global capitalism at a time when Brexit and Donald Trump are busy rewriting those rules. Yet, according to a number of investors with money at work in China, and surveys by American corporations there, the world's No. 2 economy is as protective as ever. The herald of open market capitalism is hardly open."
- "China's markets, even though they have opened in some respects over the last decade, many things are not as open as they used to be," says Rob Lutts chief investment officer of Cabot Wealth Management, a $600 million family office in Salem, Mass. Lutts recently returned from a trip to Beijing and is more bullish than bearish on China. But from his recent talks with both Chinese and American CFOs in the country, the takeaway from both sides is that there is more protection in a number of key Chinese industries. "If you talk to American executives here, they all have a China strategy but are much more concerned today about not being treated fairly than they used to be. This openness that Xi is portraying in Davos...it's good for him to be there and shows China's importance to global trade and the global market, but I would not say that China is any more open today that it was a year ago. I'd say they are more protective of their own businesses than ever."
