Last update: 10 hours ago

US-China Summit Fallout: Trump left Beijing after a two-day high-stakes meeting, but the big headlines stayed stuck on Taiwan and the Jimmy Lai release—Trump said Xi’s response on Lai was “not positive” and called freeing him “tough,” while Taiwan urged the US to keep backing peace and defence readiness. Markets & Energy: Global stocks slid as bond yields jumped and inflation worries returned; meanwhile, the Hormuz crisis kept oil prices supported, with ships still moving under Iran’s “management protocols” and reports of “unprecedented” tanker evasion tactics. China Tech Push: DeepSeek is reportedly nearing a state-backed funding round up to $4bn, betting on cheaper, efficient AI models. Hong Kong Watch: Health authorities confirmed Hong Kong’s first rat hepatitis E case this year; and police said a Kai Tak officer accidentally fired a single round with no injuries. Local Life: Hongkongers were among the victims of a New Zealand crash that killed two tourists.
