The summit between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping in Beijing leaves a new commercial truce marked by agricultural purchases, million-dollar orders to Boeing, and agreements on rare earths. The White House affirms that they agreed to create a "trade board".

By Ella Cao and Lewis Jackson BEIJING, May 16 (Reuters) - China and the United States have agreed to expand agricultural trade through tariff reductions and tackle non-tariff barriers and market access issues,

President Donald Trump's trade war with Beijing has sent U.S.-China trade into a freefall and forced companies on both sides of the Pacific to regroup.

China has agreed to ramp up trade for U.S. agricultural products such as beef and poultry, buying at an annualized rate of $17 billion per year for 2026 and at that level for 2027 and 2028, the White House announced Sunday,

Washington is signaling renewed engagement with Beijing, and investors are trying to figure out which stocks would benefit if tariffs ease, export controls loosen, and Chinese consumer demand stabilizes.

A China policy giving Africa’s biggest economies tariff-free access to its market for the next two years has come into effect.

China will impose additional tariffs ranging from 25 percent to 100 percent on certain imports from Canada starting on March 20, the Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council announced on Saturday.

The Trump Administration has started repaying more than a hundred and fifty billion dollars to companies that paid its import duties. So far, most of their customers are still waiting to see much benefit.

The Trump administration is signaling a more structured but still confrontational approach to economic ties with China, highlighting new Boeing (BA) aircraft orders while warning that Chinese industrial overcapacity could trigger additional tariffs and trade restrictions.
