Trump-Xi summit in Beijing yields nothing on Taiwan, Iran

The talks produced no breakthrough on Taiwan or Iran. Trump touted trade gains and 200 Boeing orders; Xi countered that Taiwan was the "most critical issue" and warned against miscalculation. U.S. markets tanked May 15—Dow -1.07%, S&P -1.24%, Nasdaq -1.54%. Xi's autumn visit to Washington is now the only remaining commitment.
