SHANGHAI: China's yuan finished Thursday's domestic trading session at its strongest level in two weeks, as sentiment improved after a rebound in China's equity market. The onshore spot yuan ended the domestic session at 6.4628 per dollar, up 0.43% from the previous late night close, and was the firmest since July 15.

Traders said investor worries over risks of sharp capital outflows following sell-offs in Chinese stocks eased on Thursday, after a series of official efforts to shore up investor confidence.
