Trump China Visit Date prediction

Current market odds at 63% for a Trump visit to China by May 31 seem optimistic given recent developments. The requested delay of the March 31-April 2 Beijing summit, attributed to the ongoing US-Iran war and logistical issues, significantly reduces the likelihood of a visit in the near term. Geopolitical tensions, including Taiwan Strait issues and China's apparent unpreparedness for deliverables, further complicate a pre-May 31 timeline. While market odds reflect bettor sentiment, the lack of confirmation from Beijing and Trump's focus on Iran suggest no immediate resolution or incentive for a visit. Historical precedent for quick war resolution (e.g., Venezuela) isn't materializing, and domestic energy price pressures add to the distraction. I see no specific information edge over the market, but the structural barriers (war, tensions) and absence of positive catalysts lean toward NO. Confidence is moderate at 60, aligning with a slight deviation from market odds based on news not fully priced in.
