business asia i want to get jones in the end good to have you with us and what a dream start for equity markets today from asia to europe stocks are up after u.s. president dollars trump says he was postponing a new round of terrorism china scheduled for march the first investors increasingly confident that a comprehensive trade deal between the world's two biggest economies could now be within reach. the shanghai composite closed up five point six percent marking its best day in almost four years shares in china have gained over twenty percent for the year now officially trading in a bull market that after u.s. president trump said he would postpone a march first deadline for terrify continues imports he says recent trade talks are going well everybody it's really been terrific i tell you the whole relationship has been outstanding we've put ourselves into a position of strength for the first time in about. thirty five years or probably a lot more than that but china has been terrific we want to make

a deal that's great for both countries and that's really what we're going to be doing. many in china reacted quickly to the news from washington solutions you see it's a positive signal my company bought some plastic from the u.s. previously which hasn't been taxed by china but we were worried that if relationships got worse china may impose tariffs on those products. so think the model that we trust him i don't think trump is a reliable person he might be good at doing business but as a politician he is not qualified. it doesn't help the trump gave no details on what he called substantial progress on issues such as forced technology transfers and protection of intellectual property rights both sticking points in the bilateral conversation markets took the good news anyway hoping a threat to disrupt global trade might. disappear. and for more let's cross over to

singapore where andrea hangers following the action for us andrea trump we just heard it has been talking about substantial progress without going into details any idea what progress she could talk about all monica there are a couple of ways to look at it substantial progress could mean that it's coming very long we from the days of bitter impasse between the two countries when those tariff was were happening and now we're close to concluding a deal and miles ahead of their budget impasse it could also signal the start of a new era and that is the post treat war era now it's not the most imaginable most imaginative name but it does carry some part of positive connotations that includes the end of those terror was as well as having the two countries shift their focus on promoting advanced technology. national companies as well as you know getting a stronger control over the economic rules globally did order to get to that point

and just very briefly what are the next steps all investors mostly welcome the news but right now you know that this still aware that there are a lot of difficult negotiations to come ahead particularly when it comes to china's position off on ip as well as the u.s. gaining control of accountability on china's part over some of some some of these issues as well all right andrea hang there in singapore thank you so much. the mobile world congress the wells largest mobile communications trade has kicked off in barcelona last week some saying the world's largest smartphone manufacturer presented a sensation a phone that unfolds to form a template well now china still way says it's gone one step further. while away says the mate x. is the fastest foldable five g.
