Trump to visit Beijing for summit with Xi on May 14-15

President Trump is confirmed to visit Beijing for a summit with President Xi, scheduled for May 14-15. The odds of Trump visiting China by May 31 sit at 73% YES.

Confirmation of Trump’s travel plans has solidified odds across multiple markets. The April 30 market remains negligible at 0.1% YES, since an earlier visit is impractical. The May 31 market is the primary focus, with odds at 73% YES, down slightly from 76% a day ago. The June 30 market shows 82% YES, pricing in high confidence the visit happens by mid-year.

Actual USDC trading volume is at $54,216 across the markets, with order book depth suggesting stable pricing. The largest single move was a 3-point spike in the May 31 market at 12:03 AM, likely driven by confirmation of Trump’s travel plans.

The visit comes as the ongoing US-Israel-Iran war is depleting US military resources and weakening Trump’s negotiating position. While summit confirmation supports the likelihood of the visit, Trump faces diminished US leverage going into talks. At 73¢, a YES share pays $1 if the visit occurs by May 31, a potential 1.37x return. The bet depends on the geopolitical situation remaining stable enough for the summit to proceed.

Watch for official confirmations from both the White House and Chinese Foreign Ministry as May approaches. Disruptions related to the Iran conflict could move these odds.
