US–China extend trade truce by two months, but no new deal yet
🤝 U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the United States and China agreed to extend the Busan Agreement from November 10, 2026 to January 10, 2027, giving both sides more time to continue economic negotiations.
📌 The extension largely preserves the existing truce framework. No new tariff schedule or broader agreement has been announced, while issues surrounding rare earths and the implementation of agricultural purchase commitments still need to be resolved. China has also not yet issued a corresponding detailed confirmation.
📈 Pushing back the deadline reduces the risk of renewed tariff escalation in the near term, offering some support to market sentiment and assets sensitive to U.S.–China trade. However, this remains a temporary stabilization measure rather than a major turning point in bilateral trade relations.
