0806 GMT - A Republican win in the U.S. would likely push USD/CNY higher,Goldman Sachs analysts say in a research note. A Republican sweep would likely produce the strongest USD reaction and USD/CNY could potentially reset higher toward 7.50, GS says. Tariffs on Chinese imports would be very likely under such a scenario and that could drag on China's economic growth and the yuan's performance. If the dollar is also strengthening broadly there is some risk of USD/CNY slightly overshooting 7.50, at least temporarily, although the PBOC is likely to resist moves above 7.70, they add. USD/CNY last at 7.12. (tracy.qu@wsj.com)
