马光远谈人民币升值：快升不利出口，或加剧金融波动

Core Viewpoint - The rapid appreciation of the Renminbi (RMB) is viewed negatively by experts, citing three main reasons that could adversely affect the economy and financial stability [1][2]. Group 1: Impact on Exports - Rapid or unilateral appreciation of the RMB is detrimental to exports, particularly in industries like clothing and textiles where profit margins do not exceed 5%, leading to minimal profitability [1][2]. Group 2: Inflation and Price Pressure - China is currently facing deflationary pressures, and the appreciation of the RMB makes imported goods cheaper. This decline in import prices for bulk commodities could lead to a decrease in Producer Price Index (PPI) and Consumer Price Index (CPI), exacerbating downward pressure on prices [1][2]. Group 3: Capital Inflows and Financial Volatility - While some believe that RMB appreciation could attract international capital, the focus should be on capital that sees genuine opportunities rather than speculative hot money. The expectation of unilateral appreciation may invite speculative capital, which can increase financial volatility due to rapid inflows and outflows [1][2]. Group 4: Monetary Policy Implications - Despite the concerns, the expectation of RMB appreciation may create an opportunity window for moderate easing of monetary policy [1][2].
