Xi Jinping is scheduled to begin a state visit to the United States around September 24, 2026, where he will be received by Donald Trump at the White House. This market will resolve to “Yes” if Donald Trump and Xi Jinping kiss at any point during this summit. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No." Video or photographic evidence of the kiss must be released during the summit to qualify. A qualifying kiss is defined as an in-person greeting or gesture involving the lips of one individual touching another individual. A qualifying kiss need not be reciprocal; a kiss on the cheek or hand from either party will qualify. For the purposes of this market, the summit begins when Xi Jinping enters the terrestrial or maritime territory of the United States and ends once Xi Jinping physically departs from United States territory. This market may resolve once Xi Jinping physically departs from United States territory at the end of the summit. If Xi Jinping does not physically enter the terrestrial or maritime territory of the United States by October 7, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to “No”. The resolution source will be based on photographic/video footage.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.
