Infrastructure bill signing and summit with Xi
President Biden will hold an infrastructure bill signing on Monday with members of both parties invited to attend.
Politico also reports that a virtual summit between Biden and Xi will take place Monday evening US time (early Tuesday in China). From Politico:
The summit presents the biggest opportunity yet to reset the bilateral relationship. No major breakthroughs are expected on hot-button issues, including tensions over Taiwan, Xinjiang and Hong Kong. But the meeting is likely to produce initiatives on a range of issues, including easing of visa restrictions, the creation of a bilateral nuclear weapons dialogue, and a possible framework to ease trade frictions to demonstrate bilateral resolve to move the relationship from confrontation to cooperation.
The summit should offer some warm-and-fuzzies on global growth for markets.
