US and China have resumed high-level trade negotiations in London this week following a 90-day tariff truce agreed in Geneva. The U.S. delegation—led by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer—is meeting with China’s Vice Premier He Lifeng. Core issues on the table include rare-earth mineral exports, semiconductor export controls, barriers on tech firms, and Chinese student visa restrictions. Markets are cautiously optimistic, with Asian stocks rising ahead of the talks. However, challenges remain, especially around advanced technology access and export enforcement. The tone is positive, but significant breakthroughs are not guaranteed. #USChinaTradeTalks
