U.S. trade point man heads to New York as U.S.-China prep intensifies

Summary:
  • His office said U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer plans to be in New York on Sunday for meetings with Chinese officials.
  • He will join other officials, including U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng, to prepare for a Sept. 24 Trump-Xi meeting in Washington.
  • A U.S. tariff announcement tied to claims of trading partners' excess manufacturing capacity is on hold until after the leaders meet, according to people familiar.

Who's meeting and why it matters

Jamieson Greer is set to be in New York on Sunday for discussions with Chinese counterparts, according to his office. He will join other officials, including U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng, with the aim of laying the groundwork for a high-profile Sept. 24 meeting in Washington between President Donald Trump and President Xi Jinping. The agenda is about smoothing the runway for the leaders, not grabbing headlines this weekend.

The recent backchannel

Bessent and He last sat down in person near Seoul about four months ago, just days before Trump's May trip to Beijing. That meeting is part of a steady series of contacts designed to narrow differences before the Washington summit.

Global talks remind us that steady planning helps protect and grow your savings. Join Briefs Finance CEO Jaspreet Singh on September 29th for a FREE live investor workshop, How to Profit From A Dollar That's Losing its Value, where he shows how we're spotting investment opportunities as the dollar falls. Save your spot.

What to watch for next

People familiar with the matter say Washington has pushed back any new tariff announcement tied to claims that trading partners have too much manufacturing capacity until after the leaders meet. Meanwhile, Bloomberg reported that the U.S. and China have been working on lowering tariffs on American energy and agricultural exports as part of a broader effort to lift barriers on roughly $30 billion in less sensitive goods on each side under a deal shaped at the last leaders summit. If that sticks, it could mean a little less friction for commodities and related supply chains, and a little more clarity for anyone with exposure to those sectors.

When policy shifts happen, keeping a thoughtful long term approach steadies your finances. Our CEO Jaspreet Singh is hosting a FREE live investor workshop, How to Profit From A Dollar That's Losing its Value, on September 29th. Sign up free to join him live.
