• Will bring prisoners in meeting with Xi.
• Taiwan also comes up in talks with China.
• A lot of support for Taiwan from Japan, and other countries.
• Will discuss Taiwan weapon sales with Xi.
• Xi is more likely to bring up Taiwan.

President Trump's remarks about fostering a positive relationship with China, including discussions of Taiwan and energy, indicate a potential shift in U.S. foreign policy. The emphasis on dialogue with Xi suggests attempts to mitigate tensions, which could influence market sentiment across equities and currencies, particularly in Asia and for commodity prices tied to energy. Observers should watch for market reactions related to geopolitical risks and trade considerations in light of these developments.
