- When Great Britain voted to leave the eurozone, the pound depreciated 17% against the dollar. It also raised fears that the eurozone, which uses the euro as a common currency, would fall apart.

The devaluation changed the exchange rate to more than 7 yuan per U.S. dollar, a move some analysts believe is in retaliation to U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods.

The move could expand a growing U.S. trade deficit with China, which reached a 5-month high in June according to the U.S. Commerce Department.
