Did the Chinese just let the yuan sink in value?
They like a weak currency.

My concern is more general.
History has shown that the country with the biggest global presence (including strongest army, navy etc) is usually the defacto reserve currency.
The Greeks, romans, Byzantines,Dutch, French, British all had their turn over the course of history.
Zimbabwe, by itself, might not really matter. However, China taking over a lot more in Africa and the Asia pacific is a concerning development, IMO, if we want to maintain our economic, military and cultural dominance on a global level, and to keep one chef in the kitchen.
