#USChinaTradeTalks

US-China trade talks resumed today in London, following a "very positive" call between Presidents Trump and Xi. This aims to resolve ongoing disputes, notably China's rare earth mineral exports and US tech restrictions. While a temporary truce in May lowered tariffs, both sides accuse each other of breaches. The US Treasury recently avoided labeling China a currency manipulator, signaling a desire for a deal. Markets are cautiously optimistic, hoping for a breakthrough to ease global economic uncertainty caused by persistent trade tensions.
