Caixin with the report of a speech from head of the monetary policy department at the People's Bank of China
Sun Guofeng spoke on Tuesday
- PBOC will maintain a "normal," "steady" and "flexible" monetary policy in response to increasing economic uncertainties amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
- "To cope with all sorts of uncertainties, monetary policy requires greater certainty"
- He also said he expected lower rates for business

The background to this is the PBOC avoiding negative rates and QE. So far at least. Any acceleration of easing in China should be a positive input for AUD and China-proxy trades in general.
