繼12月份發布了超乎預料的緩慢經濟增長數據之后，本周一，人民幣兌換美元匯率達到最近五年來的最低值。
The People's Bank of China, the central bank, cut its daily reference rate by 0.15 percent to 6.5032 yuan to the dollar, the weakest level since May 2011.

"In the near-term, there could be stronger U.S. dollar demand against the renminbi, as the latter's depreciation expectations will remain," he said.

In December, the renminbi lost nearly 2 percent against the dollar.

The fall came as China's top foreign exchange regulator said it would further reduce intervention after the renminbi's inclusion in the International Monetary Fund's Special Drawing Rights basket, making it a global reserve currency.
中國最高外匯監管機構表示，將進一步減少人民幣在國際貨幣基金組織的特別提款權籃子中的干預，使其成為全球儲備貨幣。
