I'm 60% sure (I am not a real economist) it'll change the exchange rate of either currency and that has enough effect on the money supply to not necessarily cause inflation.

Grain of salt please.

I'm mostly confident because usually when something like this happens usually everyone actually benefits, the neoliberals cum everywhere at once and Kekkonen smiles down from the heavens.

Cuban cigars have trippled in price over the last year and are still difficult to get largely thanks to a surge in Chinese demand. The sheer size of their middle class with discretionary income now is a force to be reckoned with.

If OP's data is true, it will undoubtedly affect demand for luxury goods at the least.
