The yen rose against the U.S. dollar to the highest level since October 15 as risk sentiment declined after Chinese authorities set the exchange rate of the yuan lower today. The People's Bank of China has lowered the rate to 6.5314 yuan per dollar from 6.5169 yuan per dollar yesterday.
New Zealand and Australian dollars declined after data showed that Markit/Caixin Services PMI for China declined to 50.2 points in December from 51.2 reported previously. Economists had expected a reading of 52.3. This means that activity growth has slowed down. Recently a corresponding index for manufacturers declined. Investors are concerned over China's ability to meet its growth target this year.
The Australian dollar was also weighed by domestic data. The AIG Services Index fell to 46.3 points in December (the weakest result since November 2014) from 48.2 reported previously.
EUR/USD: the pair declined to $1.0733 in Asian trade
USD/JPY: the pair fell to Y118.71
GBP/USD: the pair fell to $1.4648
