US-China Trade Deal: In a move that could mark a dramatic shift in global trade dynamics, US President Donald Trump on Wednesday declared that a trade deal with China “is done”, subject to final approval from Chinese President Xi Jinping. 

The announcement, made via Truth Social (Trump's own social media platform), comes after two days of intense negotiations in London and is already sending ripples through the financial world.

For Indian markets, the big question remains.

According to Zee Business Managing Editor and market expert Anil Singhvi, “Whenever Trump makes a big post, markets initially react with excitement, but investors must remember — with Trump, optics often come before outcomes. The final signature is still pending.”

While the fine print remains unclear, the optics suggest progress in resolving the tech and mineral export standoff that had intensified during Trump’s presidency.

Rare earth elements are the backbone of modern electronics, from smartphones and semiconductors to military equipment. With China controlling over 90 per cent of global processing capacity, any disruption or thaw in this space directly affects global supply chains — including India’s.

“Even a signal that the rare earths impasse may ease is positive news for sectors like auto, electronics and green energy,” said Singhvi. “But traders must wait for official confirmation from Beijing before turning too bullish," he added.

While the deal promises a win-win framework, Singhvi noted a familiar pattern, “Trump is known for headline-making claims. But in global markets, claims are not contracts. D-Street should watch how China responds.”

There’s also macroeconomic uncertainty as the US Treasury Secretary Scott Basent recently warned that failing to raise the debt limit could trigger a recession worse than 2008 — a reminder that US domestic politics could overshadow trade euphoria.
