Chinese President Xi Jinping promised on Tuesday to open the country’s economy further and lower import tariffs on products like cars, in a speech seen as an attempt to defuse an escalating trade dispute with the United States.
While much of his pledges were reiterations of previously announced reforms that foreign businesses say are long overdue, Xi’s comments sent stock markets and the U.S. dollar higher on hopes of a compromise that could avert a trade war.
Xi said China will widen market access for foreign investors, addressing a chief complaint of its trading partners and a point of contention for U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration, which has threatened billions of dollars in tariffs on Chinese goods.

China does want to keep doing business with the US.
They will find a win-win situation.
Go, Trump, MAGA!

“..trade row deepens”
Excuse me, but the title implies that things with China are getting worse when it sounds like they’re getting better.
WINNING
“China’s Xi renews vow to open economy, cut tariffs as U.S. trade row deepens”
leftist fake news headline ... how can trade row be deepening if China is vowing to open their economy?
TALK IS CHEAP —— AND IT’S A TACTIC!
Let’s NOT BE FOOLED by this delaying tactic.
Yeah, what idiot wrote that?
Dow surges more than 400 points as China's Xi alleviates trade war fears
Should read:
Dow surges more than 400 points as China's Xi caves due to President Trump's threat to force fair trade with U.S.
Q haters and deniers...
Q told us about the tariff cave in by Xi MANNNYYY hours before it happened...yeah, Q is for we weak minded moron types.
I’m not so sure this is a big win for the US because Xi didn’t make concessions about rampant dishonest Chinese intellectual property theft.
Concessions on car tariffs for US cars that aren’t sold in China in high numbers - is little consolation.
I expect Trump will revisit the IP theft issue.
Chinese need to be forced to “lose face” over this because they are SO dishonest when it comes to IP theft and just about any other business tactic. No principles.
I doubt Xi would be saying this if anyone but Trump was at the helm. Still, actions speak louder than words and I’ll believe it when I see it.
China blinks, PMSNBC continues Stormy.
