Asian Currencies Weakening: Most Asian currencies weakened due to a rebound in the dollar, influenced by optimism over U.S. trade policy deescalation and ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan affecting the Indian rupee.
Chinese Trade Data and Tariff Talks: The Chinese yuan showed little reaction to strong trade data as U.S.-China trade talks approach, with President Trump indicating potential tariff reductions if discussions go well, despite analysts cautioning that significant agreements are still needed for meaningful progress.
