Trump seeks sector deals with Xi
- President Trump travels to Beijing for a May 14–15 summit with Xi Jinping where sectoral purchase agreements, especially in energy, are reportedly under consideration. - Coverage suggests the talks will focus on transactional, sector-specific moves—energy and agriculture purchases—rather than a broad economic reset. - For companies that trade with China, planning should treat any near-term relief as selective and operational rather than as wholesale normalisation of trade relations.
