Tian Chen

#China markets reporter at #Bloomberg News in HK. Spent five years in Beijing, Chengdu native. Obsessed with #yuan, cats and hot pot. Opinions are my own.

[Tian Chen @TianChen95]

Of course every #yuan reporter needs a mug with PBOC’s favorite official line of “basically stable at reasonable, equilibrium levels.” (人民币会在合理均衡水平上保持基本稳定)

I took a red Tesla #Uber to work, and the #music the HK driver chose to play on the stereo was -- CHINA'S NATIONAL ANTHEM. I literally stepped out of that car with the most solemn tune as the background music.

China wants to stabilize the level of debt in the economy after it jumped to a record 277% of GDP. This shift is pushing up market rates. @TianChen95 and @hancocktom for @markets @economics

@justinaknope @ksengal Not sure if I wanna be Tian in Xi'an.

Thanks to the U.S. #Election, the whole world now understands how @justinaknope and I felt when waiting for the #HKD to hit 7.85 in 2018.

An IPO so big it's systemic for Hong Kong's financial system.

Glad I didn't join this bet so I apparently won.

A relic from Oct. 27, 2020. China markets bet on Ant’s first-day pop in HK and we all lost @markets

[Tian Chen @TianChen95]

One notable consequence of #China’s efforts to stimulate economic growth: companies now have a strong incentive to make risky investments. Read how Chinese firms can profit from buying wealth management products with bond sale proceeds here. https://t.co/YHTkZn6RFL via @markets

[Sofia Horta e Costa @SofiaHCBBG]

Economists are certain China won’t follow others in unleashing large-scale monetary stimulus any time soon. Investors are betting on it anyway. @TianChen95 for @markets

China's #yuan jumps the most since 2015 versus a basket of currencies Thursday. It's a true #haven in EM thanks to a central bank that's more cautious in easing and relatively successful #coronavirus containment. High govt yields also help.

As global stocks sink and Chinese markets rally, there's a risky triumphalism taking root among China’s investing community @markets

The #coronavirus outbreak is reviving foreign investors’ demand of Chinese #bonds. Their buying had been slow for months despite Beijing’s efforts to open up the markets. https://t.co/4y3kpnJWig

Amid the virus outbreak we examine how China’s expanding links to the global financial system means it’s harder than ever for the nation to keep its own troubles from spilling over to the rest of the world

China net injected the most cash in a year and set its daily yuan fixing stronger than the key 7 per dollar level, as it seeks to support its financial markets https://t.co/0KLMjZPO0f via @markets @TianChen95
