US and Chinese negotiators are advancing a framework for reciprocal tariff reductions on roughly $30 billion in bilateral trade, with focused discussions on agriculture, energy shipments, and manufacturing inputs. Preparations for the September 24 Xi-Trump summit in Washington have accelerated these talks, including weekend meetings between Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Vice Premier He Lifeng. The US has deferred new Section 301 tariffs tied to excess capacity investigations until after the leaders’ meeting, preserving leverage while signaling continuity with the existing trade truce. China’s Ministry of Commerce has confirmed ongoing consultations on the tariff reduction plan, consistent with prior commitments to cap rates near 20 percent. These steps have reinforced trader expectations for a formal agreement or extension ahead of the December 31 deadline.
