From DW News.

Asian stocks have surged on the back of a breakthrough in trade talks between the US and China. US President Donald Trump and PRC President Xi Jinping are expected to finalize a deal and avert an escalation in the world’s biggest trade dispute.
Markets rallied after US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the threat of an additional 100% tariff on Chinese goods was "effectively off the table," following talks at the ASEAN summit. Bessent told broadcaster ABC that China had agreed to delay controls on rare-earth exports and make substantial soybean purchases from the US.
