Yuan Rises on Firmer PBOC Guidance; US Dollar Strong Amid Mideast Tensions

China's yuan rose against the US dollar following the central bank's firmer official guidance, with investors now focused on upcoming policy cues from the Politburo meeting. The US dollar, meanwhile, maintained a near one-week high as markets assessed mixed signals from the Middle East, impacting energy supply concerns. The People's Bank of China appears comfortable with the USD/CNY trading within a 6.75-6.80 range. A stronger US dollar could exert downward pressure on international gold prices, potentially influencing local gold rates and the USD/PKR exchange rate in Pakistan.
