Prior +8.4%New yuan loans ÂĄ220.0 billion vs ÂĄ500.0 billion expectedPrior ÂĄ1.29 trillionNew bank loans underwhelmed in October after a modest pickup in September and is a miss on estimates once again. This continues to underscore that private demand conditions remain weak and Beijing still has a tall task in trying to stimulate credit growth in order to prop up the economy. That despite the seemingly better outlook implied by the stock market this year. The year-to-date total for new bank loans now stand at ÂĄ14.97 trillion, which will surely fall short of the ÂĄ18.1 trillion total in the whole of 2024.

đź’ˇ DMK Insight
New bank loans in China fell short of expectations, and here’s why that matters: With new yuan loans at ÂĄ220.0 billion against an expected ÂĄ500.0 billion, this miss signals ongoing weakness in private demand. For traders, this could mean a slowdown in economic activity, which might lead to further easing measures from the PBOC. If the central bank reacts, we could see shifts in the yuan and related markets. Keep an eye on the USD/CNY pair; a weaker yuan could push it higher, especially if the PBOC steps in to stimulate growth. This data also impacts commodities and equities tied to Chinese demand, so watch for potential ripple effects in those sectors. On the flip side, if the market overreacts to this data, there might be a buying opportunity in undervalued assets. Traders should monitor the ÂĄ1.29 trillion figure from last month as a benchmark; if we see a continued decline below that, it could indicate deeper economic issues. Watch for any PBOC statements or policy changes in the coming weeks as they could provide clarity on the direction of monetary policy.
đź“® Takeaway
Watch the USD/CNY pair closely; a sustained move above recent highs could signal further weakness in the yuan and broader economic concerns.
