MARKETS STARTING TO SHAKE AGAIN as TRUMP–XI SUMMIT UNDERWAY.
President Donald Trump and President Xi Jinping are meeting at the White House, and global markets are watching every word. The two sides have already agreed to extend their fragile trade truce by two months, while major issues remain on the table — trade, AI, advanced chips, rare earths, Taiwan and Iran. The summit material you shared likewise identifies trade, AI safeguards and Iran among the central issues.
Meanwhile, several warning lights are flashing:
🔥 Oil is surging again — Brent was around US$106.93, up 3.73%, while WTI was around US$95.47, up 3.59%.
📈 US bond yields remain extremely high — the 10-year Treasury was around 5.14%, while the 30-year was around 5.43%, increasing pressure on equity valuations.
📉 Stocks are pulling back — the Nasdaq-100 was down about 0.69% and the S&P 500 about 0.38% at the time of the snapshots.
🥇 Gold has fallen again! Gold was around US$4,250/oz, down roughly 6.9% over 30 days despite remaining substantially higher over the past year.
And beneath the headline stock indices, market breadth looks unusually weak: one report says roughly 60% of S&P 500 stocks were more than 20% below their all-time highs, even while the overall index remained close to its record.
Tonight, I’ll connect all these dots: Trump–Xi, China–US trade, Iran, oil, Treasury yields, stocks and gold. What does this combination mean for investors — and what should we be watching next?
