China tells state banks to prepare for a massive dollar dump and yuan buying spree (2 min read)

China has told state banks to prepare to sell the dollar and buy the yuan in an attempt to stop the currency from dropping further. Offshore branches including those in Hong Kong, London, and New York were also ordered to have the dollar reserves ready. The yuan has fallen 11% against the dollar this year and is on track for its worst annual decline since 1994. Unlike the Fed and other central banks, China has been easing the rates instead of raising them in an effort to bring growth in the economy that’s been dragged down by Covid lockdowns.

With Dick’s Sporting Goods taking a cut from this partnership, their profit margins will likely depress further. This may be a possibility why shares of Peloton plunged over 14% after the news.
