Markets in Asia edged higher following Xi’s remarks
Stock markets in Asia rose on Tuesday as market participants digested a speech from Chinese President Xi Jinping on a plan designed to open the economy.
"We encourage normal technological exchanges and cooperation between Chinese and foreign enterprises and protect the lawful [intellectual property] owned by foreign enterprises in China," Xi said speaking at the Boao Forum for Asia.
"We must refrain from seeking dominance and reject the zero-sum game, we must refrain from 'beggar thy neighbor' and reject power politics or hegemony while the strong bully the weak, [...] This way, we will make economic globalization, more open, inclusive, balanced and beneficial to all," he added.
Markets reacted positively to Xi’s comments, which reinforced the idea that China is willing to resolve commercial differences with the United States in a diplomatic way.
Over the weekend, President Trump tweeted: "President Xi and I will always be friends, no matter what happens with our dispute on trade. China will take down its Trade Barriers because it is the right thing to do. Taxes will become Reciprocal & a deal will be made on Intellectual Property. Great future for both countries!"
