Futures, Yields And Oil All Rise As Trump Arrives In China
US equity futures are up (alongside oil and yields, go figure), reversing yesterday's modest losses, as optimism around the earnings potential of AI outweighs concerns over hot inflation readings bringing dip buyers back to drive tech stocks higher, with traders betting that the tech rally has further room to run while also hoping on good news from the Trump-Xi summit set to start today in Beijing. As of 7:30am ET, S&P futures were up 0.2% and Nasdaq futures rose 0.7% thanks to a rebound in Semi stocks in the Asian and EMEA sessions. In premarket trading, semis are bid as yesterday's dip buyers appear to be once again rewarded. NVDA is up 2.5% as CEO Huang joining Trump's China trip. Chip and memory sotcks, the key drivers of the past month's narrow rally in the artificial-intelligence trade, posted broad gains.

Chinese Supertanker Sails Out Of Hormuz In Rare Exit
As president Trump was on his way to China, a Chinese tanker appears to have exited the Strait of Hormuz as it sails toward an area where the US has enforced a blockade, ahead of talks between US President Donald Trump and counterpart Xi Jinping, Bloomberg reported today, citing ship-tracking data showing the VLCC moving south along the eastern side of the chokepoint.
The supertanker which sailed past Iran's Larak island, and into the Gulf of Oman, is Yuan Hua Hu, owned by Cosco, and would be only the third tanker carrying oil for China from the Persian Gulf that has traversed Hormuz since the start of the war. The vessel is broadcasting its Chinese origin and crew, Bloomberg said, as other vessels have done previously to secure safe passage.
Yuan Hua Hu's draft indicates it's fully loaded with oil, or close to the vessel's 2 million barrel capacity. It was seen lifting from Iraq's Basrah terminal in early March, according to ship-tr...

Trump Says 'Open Up China' Before Landing In Beijing For Pomp-Filled Red Carpet Airport Welcome
President Trump and his Air Force One entourage have arrived in Beijing on Wednesday, greeted by a lavish red carpet welcome. The American president was received by Chinese Vice President Han Zheng, China's ambassador to Washington Xie Feng, Executive Vice Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxuong, and US envoy to Beijing David Perdue.
