As US-China trade talks continue, financial markets are reacting with mixed signals. Futures have slipped while investors await more details on the trade framework recently announced by both nations. The stock market exhibited slight changes, with the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq either flat or poised to close higher. Investors are hopeful as reports indicate a framework for a potential trade deal has been set, leading to a rise in Asia-Pacific markets. However, there remains a cautious sentiment as inflation data and further updates from the trade discussions loom. The overall outlook on Wall Street shows resilience, anticipating further progress in resolving trade tensions.
