#TradeWarEases I think the progress in U.S.-China trade talks is a positive sign, but I’m cautiously optimistic. It's good they’re setting up a consultation mechanism, yet real change will depend on follow-through. Markets may react to the upcoming joint statement, possibly boosting investor confidence. Still, this doesn’t mean the trade conflict is over there’s a long way to go. I agree with others saying that while China is at the table, the bigger economic battle continues.
