What moved the KRW/CNY rate today
The KRW firmed 0.13% against the CNY in the latest session, meaning each KRW now buys more CNY than it did at the previous close. For this pair the two forces that matter most are Korean export data, semiconductor shipments and Bank of Korea policy on the KRW side and the People’s Bank of China daily fixing, onshore liquidity and China’s growth data on the CNY side. When the gap between expected policy rates in the two economies widens, capital tends to flow toward the higher-yielding currency and the pair adjusts accordingly. Day-to-day moves of a few tenths of a percent are normal and are usually driven by positioning around data releases rather than a change in the underlying trend.
