"Both leaders extended the October 2025 trade truce under a new strategic stability framework. A 3.8% U.S. CPI print, the hottest in nearly 3 years, complicated the Fed rate-cut narrative and capped bitcoin's upside during the summit. China agreed to buy soybeans, LNG, and 200 Boeing jets as multiple trade deals were announced."
"Trump arrived in Beijing accompanied by a delegation of U.S. executives, including Tesla's Elon Musk, Apple's Tim Cook, Blackrock chief Larry Fink, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. The three-day visit marked the most direct U.S.-China leadership engagement in years, with crypto and equity markets watching closely for any shift in the trade framework governing relations since the tariff truce struck in South Korea in October 2025."
"Trump announced that Xi agreed to purchase U.S. soybeans, liquefied natural gas, and other energy products, alongside a commitment to buy 200 Boeing jets. Furthermore, both leaders agreed to anchor the relationship around a long-term constructive China-U.S. relationship of strategic stability framework, which Beijing will treat as its guiding lens for the next three years."
"Bitcoin's reaction to the summit was not a clean rally, with the asset dropping to approximately $79,200 during Asian trading hours on May 14 as Xi Jinping issued a pointed warning to Trump over Taiwan, rattling Asian equities and the broader crypto market. Solana fell 5.6% to $90 in the same window, while ether dropped 2.1% to $2,250. Crypto market lost 4% of its value before recovering swiftly."
U.S. and China leaders extended an October 2025 trade truce under a long-term strategic stability framework for the next three years. The summit in Beijing included U.S. executives such as Elon Musk, Tim Cook, Larry Fink, and Jensen Huang. Trump announced that Xi agreed to purchase U.S. soybeans, liquefied natural gas, other energy products, and 200 Boeing jets. Markets reacted to macro data, with U.S. CPI rising 3.8% and PPI increasing 1.4% month-over-month, complicating expectations for Fed rate cuts. During Asian trading, bitcoin fell to about $79,200 after Xi issued a pointed warning to Trump over Taiwan, with Solana and ether also declining. After the trade announcements, bitcoin recovered above $81,000 before slipping again.
