Much of the attention has been on the Fed and how they will respond to the U.S. economy, but the Chinese central bank made a splash with policy news this week. The People’s Bank of China will free up about one trillion yuan, about $154.19 billion, by lowering the minimum reserve requirement of its country’s banks. PBOC will lower the reserve requirement ratio by 50 basis points to do this. The post-pandemic run has been strong for China’s economy, but it has stalled as of late. Peak demand and growth rates are coming down and weakening exports stemming from producer price inflation are slowing the economy. The PBOC says monetary policy will remain unchanged and the change in reserve requirements will help repay the maturing debt and ease the tax burden.
