Trader consensus reflects the overwhelming improbability of such an event under established diplomatic norms, where U.S.-China summits follow protocols centered on handshakes, formal statements, and structured negotiations rather than personal gestures. No prior meetings between the leaders or their predecessors have included comparable conduct, and public expectations around state visits prioritize decorum amid domestic political pressures on both sides. The current 98.6% implied probability on "No" aligns with this consistent historical pattern and the absence of any signals suggesting deviation. Shifts remain possible only through highly unusual late developments, such as verified reports of altered private arrangements or unprecedented protocol changes during the summit window.
