On January 22nd, a research report from CITIC Securities pointed out that the USD/CNY exchange rate has also continued to rise recently. Given the still strong willingness to settle foreign exchange in the short term, and the fact that the beginning of each year is a major window for RMB appreciation, it cannot be ruled out that the RMB will continue to rise before the Spring Festival, releasing appreciation pressure. The combination of falling US Treasury yields and a strengthening RMB will put considerable pressure on current US Treasury holdings. However, after entering March, US Treasury yields and the RMB exchange rate may simultaneously peak, at which time a more ideal buying opportunity will be provided.
