China’s central bank offered 125 billion yuan ($18 billion) of medium-term lending facilities, 25 billion yuan more than the amount due in May.

And 80% of analysts polled by Bloomberg had expected to pump the same amount as the previous month.

The bank kept the interest rate on one-year loans at 2.75%, unchanged for the ninth month.
