Hopes for U.S.-China Trade Deal Jolt Foreign-Exchange Markets

The Taiwan dollar gained more than 5% against the greenback, on pace for its largest one-day gain since 1993, according to FactSet data. The offshore Chinese yuan, the more freely traded version of China's currency, the Japanese yen and the Australian dollar all gained less than 1% against the dollar. China said Friday it was evaluating starting talks with the U.S. to halt a trade war, but only if Washington shows “sincerity” through measures such as by canceling tariffs against Beijing.

Yen Falls After Japan Slashes Growth Forecast on Tariff Uncertainty

The yen weakened after the Bank of Japan halved its economic-growth forecast, citing uncertainty around President Trump’s tariff war. “It is extremely uncertain how trade and other policies in each jurisdiction will evolve and how overseas economic activity and prices will react to them,” the BOJ said Thursday. Before President Trump put the bulk of his so-called “reciprocal tariffs” on pause for 90 days last month, Japan faced a 24% duty on its exports to America.
