Of course, the renminbi’s recent depreciation was much smaller than the de facto currency devaluations engineered by the United States and the United Kingdom after the financial crisis of 2008. It was also nowhere near as significant as the devaluation that the Bank of Japan has pursued since 2012.
当然，最近的人民币贬值比2008年金融危机后美国和英国所发动的实际贬值要小得多，也远远比不上2012年以来日本银行所发动的贬值。但人民币受严格管制这一事实以及多年来的稳步升值的历史意味着其突然贬值要比美国、英国和日本的动作产生更大的市场影响。后三者的贬值人们是提前得到暗示的。
