China's yuan sank to a 10-year low against the dollar on Monday, coming close to breaking the politically sensitive level of seven to the U.S. currency.
人民币兑美元汇率周一跌至10年来的最低点,接近1比7的政治敏感数字。
The yuan declined to 6.9644 per dollar at midday, passing its most recent low in 2016 before recovering slightly. It was the lowest level since May 2008.
人民币在午盘时跌至对美元6.9644的汇率,跌破最近一次在2016年低点,之后略有回升。不过这是自2008年5月以来的最低水平。
The currency's weakness is one of a series of elements fueling Washington's trade complaints against Beijing. The U.S. Treasury Department declined this month to label China a currency manipulator but said it was closely watching Beijing.
人民币疲软是导致华盛顿不满北京贸易政策一系列因素之一。美国财政部本月没有将中国列为货币操纵国,但表示正在密切关注北京。
Chinese authorities have promised to avoid "competitive devaluation" to boost exports amid a tariff war with U.S. President Donald Trump. But they are trying to make the state-controlled exchange rate more responsive to market forces, which are pushing the yuan lower.
中国当局在与美国特朗普政府进行关税战之际,一度承诺避免为促进出口而对人民币"竞争性贬值"。不过中方正努力使国家控制的汇率更敏感地对市场做出反应,而市场力量正在推动人民币走低。
The level of seven yuan to the dollar has no economic significance, but could revive U.S. attention to the exchange rate.

The yuan, also known as the renminbi, or "people's money," has declined by almost 10 percent against the dollar since April as China's economy cooled and U.S. and Chinese interest rates went in opposite directions. That helps exporters cope with tariffs of up to 25 percent imposed by Trump on billions of dollars of Chinese goods. But it raises the risk of inflaming American complaints about Beijing's trade tactics.
自今年4月份以来,由于中国经济降温,美国和中国的利率走势相反,人民币兑美元汇率已下跌近10%。这有助于出口商应对特朗普政府对数十亿美元中国商品征收25%的关税。但这增加了美国抱怨北京贸易策略的风险。
A Treasury report on Oct. 17 said China failed to meet criteria to be labeled a currency manipulator, a status that can trigger sanctions. But it said Beijing was, along with Japan and Germany, on a list of governments whose currency polices would be closely monitored.
