## Resource

In Episode 60 of China Economy with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna examine a surprising trend: as the yuan weakens against the dollar, foreign investors are piling into Chinese bonds at the fastest pace in two years. They break down the dynamics behind this apparent contradiction — including the role of carry trades, the yield gap between Chinese and US debt, and recent data showing foreign holdings of Chinese government bonds rose by $12 billion in May. The hosts also discuss how Beijing’s cautious policy stance is making its bonds a relative safe haven amid global rate uncertainty. Plus, a listener question on whether the yuan’s slide could accelerate. A focused, data-rich conversation for anyone tracking Asia-Pacific markets. #ChinaBonds #YuanWeakness #ForeignInvestment #CarryTrade #PBOC #USChinaTrade #BondMarket #YieldGap #Currency #CentralBank #FixedIncome #Economics #ChinaEconomy #AsiaMarkets #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Finance #EmergingMarkets Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
