AI Overview

What happened: US-China trade tensions escalated as the Iran conflict intensified. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi visited China, pushing for an immediate reopening of the Hormuz Strait. South Korea proposed a $17 billion supplementary budget to ease energy costs amidst supply crunches. President Trump rescheduled his trip to meet Xi Jinping in China from April to May due to the Iran war.

Market impact: Energy and manufacturing sectors face headwinds. China's economy, already strained, faces mounting pressure with export growth at risk. India's $100 billion garments export goal is threatened. South Korea's supplementary budget aims to ease energy cost burdens on households and industries.

What to watch next: Trump-Xi summit on May 14-15; China's Q1 GDP data release (April 17); Iran's response to potential US sanctions escalation; India-US trade deal progress.
