The RMB flow story still has legs Strategist+852-2203-6153 highest level sinceFebruary at $57.4bn, and bringing the3MMAto $47bn.Theselling continues to be driven primarily by robust FX conversion from exporters,atrend consistentwithChina'sexpandingtradesurplusandcorroboratedbyourproprietary EPIC data, which continues to signal active corporate RMBconversion demand. MacroStrategist+852-2203-6159 The exporter conversion ratio rebounded sharply in the latest reading, to 64.5%,versus 58.2% in May, though the 3MMA is still looking poor because of the weakApril reading. We expect the exporter conversion activity to remain firm in the second half ofthe year. The lower USD/CNY fix suggests policymakers are becoming moretolerant of RMB appreciation,which increases the opportunity cost forexportersof holding USD receipts.Even if the conversion ratio stabilizes at current levels,the continued expansion of China's trade surplus would increase the volume ofexportproceeds available for conversion.
