Asian Stocks Rise As China-US Trade Talks Boost Optimism

If the US wishes to resolve issues through negotiation, it must acknowledge the severe negative impacts its unilateral tariff measures have had on itself and the world,

the spokesperson said

We don’t want to decouple. What we want is fair trade,

Bessent told Fox News host Laura Ingraham

As a Chinese saying goes, ‘Listen to their words and observe their actions,

a ministry spokesperson said

Just as everyone's throwing in the towel--calling end-of-days on the 'Trump Trade War' -- the White House quietly unleashes a 'trade deal' teaser to yank markets off the cliff,

said Stephen Innes of SPI Asset Management

The market has been expecting for monetary stimulus since the start of the year to boost credit growth and counter external uncertainty,

said David Chao at Invesco

We will agree what we're going to talk about. My sense is that this will be about de-escalation, not about the big trade deal,

Bessent told "The Ingraham Angle" show

If the US talks in one way and acts in another, or even attempts to continue to coerce and blackmail China under the guise of talks, China will never agree."

It also warned

Gold seems to be pulling back amid a broad-based "risk on" move across markets ... this is a pro-cyclical configuration that might echo optimism amid clues that the U.S. and China have started real trade negotiations,
