What's the quote? Those who are willing to trade freedom for a little security deserve neither and will eventually lose both.
 
sgx futures, hmm they may have rebranded themselves as the APEX, https://www.asiapacificex.com/?p=usd_futures

Here you can see the latest settlement prices: https://www.asiapacificex.com/?p=settlement_prices

Looks like the market makers there expect the Chinese Yuan to lose more purchasing power than the USD in the coming year. I have no idea if the market makers there are smart, or dumb.

right. yuan futures is available from APEX.
also available from HKFE ...

but the volume traded has been rather low.
 
Can buy the currency at IB.

Oanda does also let you trade USD / Yuan. However, the Chinese currency is pegged to a currency-basket that include the USD. So it is not a given that it will move as much as one might expect even due to the derailing of the US economy by going full woke....

Market makers don't "expect" anything when it comes to forex futures pricing. In general it is based purely on a mechanical relationship between the interest rates of the two currencies.

point is Mahr's take that China doesn't care about controversial speech (stereotypes & wokeness) and just worries about progress is hot garbage.
 
even due to the derailing of the US economy by going full woke....
This sentence doesn't even make any sense. In the U.S. people lose their jobs and are thought less of by their friends and neighbors when they're assholes or advocate for the overthrow of our government. You call that "full woke". In China people go to jail or are executed when they offend someone important or hold a peaceful protest. So I'm confused, China is going to come out ahead because it stifles people's speech more, but the U.S. economy is being derailed because it's stifling peoples ability to be assholes without consequence?
