MNI is reporting this morning ...

(bolding is mine):

  • The Chinese government may lower the required deposit reserve ratio again
  • Following the release of second quarter economic data next month
  • Decision continues to be debated amid signs of improved capital flows, economic stabilization and an increasingly volatile stock market

hmmmm - I'll see if I can get more

But, note from what we have got - its still being debated ... a "may" at this stage

The date nominated is July 15 (for the release of the Q2 data)

MNI's source on this an unnamed "senior Chinese economist and advisor"

  • Says lowering the RRR is 'an inevitable trend'

Kudos to him for sticking his neck out with a specific date. But, please, treat with care.

And, of course, thanks to MNI for the report.
