Group 1: Analysis of RMB Exchange Rate Stability - Despite intensified US-China trade tensions and cumulative tariffs exceeding 100%, the RMB to USD exchange rate remains stable, even slightly appreciating, which exceeds market expectations [2][3] - External factors contributing to this stability include the depreciation of the USD due to a crisis of confidence, as well as the impact of Trump's policies that have led to a significant decline in the USD index, which has dropped over 7% this year [3][4] - Internal factors include the anticipation of external pressures reflected in the RMB's previous adjustments, as well as government measures to stabilize the market, such as the introduction of financial policies and the release of stabilizing signals in the exchange rate [4][6] Group 2: Future Support for RMB Exchange Rate - The RMB exchange rate is supported by four key factors: the negative impact of Trump's tariffs on the US economy, ongoing USD credit crises, the resumption of US-China economic dialogues, and the adequacy of China's policy reserves to stabilize market expectations [5][6] - The potential for a shift to two-way fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate is increasing, driven by the convergence of economic cycles and monetary policies between China and the US [6][7] Group 3: Corporate Exchange Rate Risk Management - Companies are advised to adopt a "risk-neutral" approach to manage exchange rate risks, avoiding unilateral bets on RMB appreciation or depreciation [8][9] - Recommended strategies include natural hedging through matching foreign exchange income and expenses, promoting the use of RMB for settlements, and utilizing foreign exchange derivatives to hedge against potential fluctuations [8][9]
