周五,在中国宣布对美国进口商品征收互惠关税后,离岸人民币兑美元汇率在早盘短暂达到两周高点,随后回落至7.26左右。国务院关税税则委员会表示,自2025年4月10日起,中国将对所有美国商品加征34%的关税。此前,特朗普总统周三公布了对中国进口商品征收34%的关税,将对中国的总征税提高到惊人的54%。这一举措是几乎所有中国出口产品有史以来最大幅度的关税上调,可能会削弱中国对美国的出口。在其他地方,中国还宣布将很快重启与欧盟的谈判,以改善中欧公司之间的合作,特别是在电动汽车领域。本周早些时候,韩国、中国和日本同意寻求一项旨在促进地区贸易的自由贸易协定。
The offshore yuan retreated to around 7.26 per dollar on Friday, after briefly reaching a two-week high earlier in the session, following China's announcement of reciprocal tariffs on US imports. The Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council stated that China will impose additional 34% tariff on all American goods, effective April 10, 2025. This came after President Trump unveiled a 34% tariff on Chinese imports on Wednesday, pushing the total levies on China to a staggering 54%. This move represents the largest-ever tariff hike on nearly all Chinese exports, potentially crippling China's shipments to the US. Elsewhere, China also announced that it will soon restart negotiations with the EU to improve cooperation between Chinese and European companies, particularly in the electric vehicle sector. Earlier in the week, South Korea, China, and Japan agreed to pursue a free trade pact aimed at boosting regional trade.
