China opened its stock option market to foreign investors on Tuesday, in a bid to boost the appeal of yuan-denominated assets. The Shanghai Stock Exchange said qualified foreign institutional investors can apply to trade options for hedging purposes, giving access to a CNY 100 trillion market. Currently, five ETF-based option products are listed. The move follows recent steps to expand foreign participation in China’s bond market and promote international use of the yuan. Regulators last week widened access to the bond repurchase market, raised limits on the Swap Connect scheme, and announced measures to grow offshore yuan business in Hong Kong, while launching a Shanghai hub to promote adoption of the central bank’s digital yuan. Markets in China will remain closed from today until October 8 for the Golden Week holiday.

周三，离岸人民币连续第二个交易日稳定在7.12美元左右，因为市场在中国延长的“黄金周”假期开始时消化了美中贸易关系的最新消息。周二，美国贸易代表杰米森·格里尔评论说，目前对大约55%的中国进口商品征收关税代表了“良好的现状”。然而，他指出，特朗普政府对确定双边贸易可以更自由地扩大的领域持开放态度。他的言论表明，在11月10日的最后期限之前，特朗普总统对中国商品的关税不会立即降低，届时两国之间的临时贸易休战将到期。与此同时，中国的“黄金周”假期于10月1日正式开始，并将持续到10月8日。今年的延长假期恰逢中秋节和国庆节庆祝活动，预计将推动国内和国际旅行的激增。

The offshore yuan held steady for the second consecutive session at around 7.12 per dollar on Wednesday, as markets digested the latest news on US-China trade relations amid the start of China’s extended 'Golden Week' holiday. On Tuesday, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer commented that the current tariffs on roughly 55% of Chinese imports represent a “good status quo.” However, he noted that the Trump administration is open to identifying areas where bilateral trade could expand more freely. His remarks suggested there would be no immediate reduction in President Trump’s tariffs on Chinese goods ahead of the November 10 deadline, when a temporary trade truce between the two countries is set to expire. Meanwhile, China’s “Golden Week” holiday officially began on October 1 and will run through October 8. This year’s extended break, which coincides with the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day celebrations, is expected to fuel a surge in both domestic and international travel.
