Credible
August 7, 2019
The source is credible and the article is fairly brief. It reads as basically a list of complaints and concerns from the U.S.about goings-on in the Chinese economy and government policy thereof. Fairly superficial in terms of exploring possible further underlying reasons for the action referenced. Additionally, the piece is somewhat esoteric and thereby may not be sufficiently explanatory particularly for the lay reader.

This article misses an opportunity to educate and provide context to readers. Instead of presenting figures and past incidents of Chinese currency manipulation, the article focuses on tweets and quotes from political leaders. I would have much preferred to have seen some graphs or breakdowns of how China's currency has been manipulated in the past and what the practical effects are.

While I think the article is credible overall, this article is surface level for how long it is. It lacks the context to understand what this 'unfair advantage' is that China is receiving by reducing the value of the yuan and what the signs are, and how they're interpreted as currency manipulation. However, it does tell you when the US has passed on calling China a currency manipulator 5 times 'recently.'
