Foreign Direct Investment data just out from the Chinese Commerce Ministry 18 May

  • April FDI 59.91bln yuan
  • Jan-April FDI yy -0.1%, 286.1bln yuan

First FDI off the rank for April (they also publish in USD terms but normally CNY first)

Meanwhile GBPUSD back up to 1.2953 after 1.2937 lows, supporting my dip demand post earlier. EURUSD 1.1130 from 1.1120. USDJPY going nowhere in a hurry at 111.27
