Global events/updates:
Trump said the U.S. and China are close to a trade deal ahead of his talks with Xi. He also signed trade and mineral agreements with Malaysia and Cambodia, plus frameworks with Thailand and Vietnam. Malaysia agreed not to restrict mineral exports to the U.S., though experts note these deals emphasize cooperation over firm commitments.
The U.S. and China reached a preliminary trade framework to pause Trump’s planned 100% tariffs and China’s rare earth export controls. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the talks eased tensions and may revive U.S. soybean sales. Both sides aim to finalize the deal during the Trump-Xi meeting at the APEC summit in South Korea.
European stocks opened slightly higher as investors await the U.S. Fed’s rate decision, corporate earnings, and potential easing of U.S.-China trade tensions. Novartis fell after a $12 billion deal, while Sydbank rose 6.4% on a merger plan. Markets expect a Fed rate cut, and traders are eyeing the upcoming Trump-Xi meeting at the APEC summit.
Foreign investor interest in Indian banks is rising, driven by strong economic growth and a supportive RBI. Deals like Blackstone’s stake in Federal Bank and RBL Bank’s tie-up with Emirates NBD highlight this trend. Experts say India’s robust economy, healthy banking system, and active Asia-Middle East investment corridors make it an attractive destination for global capital.
Gold prices fell as a stronger U.S. dollar and easing trade tensions reduced safe-haven demand. Spot gold dropped 0.7% to $4,082.77 per ounce after a record rally. Analysts see this as either a healthy correction or a sign of shifting sentiment, with focus now on the Fed’s upcoming rate decision and Powell’s policy outlook.
