Trump says Xi agreed to restart flow of crucial minerals, but analysts say China won't give up its ‘rare earth card'
US President Donald Trump said Chinese leader Xi Jinping has agreed to restart the flow of crucial rare earth materials, after announcing a new round of US-China trade talks will be held in London on Monday. Trump made the comments a day after holding his long-awaited phone call with Xi, during which the two leaders agreed to resume negotiations stalled over mutual accusations of violating the truce reached in Geneva last month. For Washington, a major sticking point has been China's export restrictions on rare earth minerals and magnets, which are essential for everything from cars to fighter jets, and critical to American industries and defense. In the weeks since the fragile detente, Washington has accused Beijing of slow-walking approvals for rare earth exports and reneging on its promise made in Geneva, with Trump expressing increasing urgency to speak to his Chinese counterpart to iron things out. After a 90-minute call on Thursday, Trump said he and Xi had 'straightened out' some points related to rare earth magnets, describing it as 'very complex stuff.' But he did not specify what exactly had been agreed upon. Asked Friday if Xi had agreed to restart the flow of rare earth minerals and magnets, Trump told reporters abroad Air Force One: 'Yes, he did.' He did not further elaborate on how fast that would happen, or the volume of the materials that would be released. The Chinese readout of the call did not mention rare earths. Instead, it quoted Xi as saying that China had 'seriously and earnestly' complied with the trade truce agreement. Asked about it at the Chinese foreign ministry's daily briefing on Friday, a spokesperson sidestepped the question, saying it was a matter for other agencies to address. China, which controls 90% of the global processing of rare earths, imposed export restrictions on some minerals and magnets on April 4 at the height of the tariff war, after Trump slapped 'reciprocal' levies on Chinese goods. The new system does not ban exports outright, but requires government approval for each shipment. Chinese scholars who advise the government suggested on Thursday that Beijing is not ready to give up the powerful leverage bestowed by its dominance on the rare earth supply chain – and may seek to use it to get Washington to ease its own export controls aimed at blocking China's access to advanced US semiconductors and technologies. While American businesses are likely to see more shipments approved in the next couple of weeks, the export licensing regime is here to stay, said Wu Xinbo, director of the Center for American Studies at Fudan University in Shanghai. He noted that, according to official rules set by China's Commerce Ministry, applications for export licenses can take up to 45 working days to be approved. 'In principle, I can agree to export to you, but I can speed things up or slow them down. In reality, on a technical level, it also depends on the overall bilateral trade and economic atmosphere,' he said. 'If the bilateral relationship is good, then I'll go a bit faster; if not, I'll slow down. But you can't say I'm violating the agreement – I'm still following the standard procedures.' Some Chinese suppliers of US companies have recently received six-month export licenses, the American Chamber of Commerce in China said Friday, but it noted that uncertainty remains amid a large backlog of license applications. Jin Canrong, a professor of international relations at Renmin University in Beijing, said the importance Trump attaches to rare earths shows how effective China's 'rare earth card' is. 'I hadn't realized just how important this rare earth card was before. Now the US side is clearly anxious and eager to resolve this issue,' he said in a video on social media on Thursday. 'But of course, we'll link this issue to others – the US is restricting China on chips and jet engines, then China certainly has every reason to make use of this card.' 'As for whether China will change its rare earth export control policy, that probably still needs to be negotiated in more detail' Jin added. Some Chinese scholars have expressed hope that US technology restrictions on China may now be up for negotiation, after Trump announced that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick – whose department overseas US export controls – will join Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer in the next round of trade talks. 'The issue of US export controls may no longer be an area that is completely non-negotiable in the future,' Cui Fan, an economics professor at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing and advisor to the Chinese Commerce Ministry, wrote in a social media post. Beijing has insisted that its export controls are in line with international practices, non-discriminatory and not targeted at any specific country. Hours before the two leaders jumped on the phone on Thursday, a spokesperson for China's commerce ministry reiterated that stance at a regular news conference, citing the 'clear dual-use attributes' of rare earth materials. Dual-use items refer to those with both civilian and military applications. 'The Chinese government reviews export license applications for dual-use items in accordance with laws and regulations, and for applications that meet the requirements, China will grant approval to promote and facilitate compliant trade,' spokesperson He Yongqian said. The strict licensing system has significantly disrupted the global supplies of these materials and triggered production turmoil across industries in America and Europe, raising alarms among officials and businesses alike. A survey of member companies conducted by the American Chamber of Commerce in China late week found that, among those affected by rare earth export controls, 75% say their stock would run out within three months. CNN's Kit Maher contributed to reporting.

Are these the best American stocks for my ISA?
At the moment, US-listed stocks account for also exactly half of my ISA holdings. To be precise, around 42% of my Stocks and Shares ISA is in cash — I'm a little wary at the moment — and 29% in both international (all North American) and UK-listed stocks. So, why am I a little wary? Well, I'm being more selective about US stocks because the sharp rise in tariffs this year has fundamentally changed the investment landscape. Between January and April 2025, the average effective US tariff rate soared from 2.5% to 27%. These are levels not seen in over a century. It had settled slightly at 17.8% in May, but negotiations are ongoing. Such high tariffs are likely to be raising input costs, squeezing corporate profit margins, and dampening earnings growth. I'm focusing on the metrics because, in today's environment, growth alone isn't enough—valuations must be justifiable. With the S&P 500's forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio at 21.3 — above both 5- and 10-year averages — it's crucial to find companies where earnings multiples make sense relative to their growth prospects. As always I'm prioritising growth-adjusted ratios like the P/E-to-growth (PEG) ratio, which help identify stocks offering genuine value for their expected growth, but being even more selective than usual. So, who are they? Well, Pinterest (NYSE:PINS) stands out as fundamentally cheap by most metrics, while Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) trades at lower multiples than its peers despite similar growth trajectories. In my view, this makes both attractive, non-speculative picks in a market where speculation is increasingly risky. Pinterest currently trades at a forward P/E of 17.7 times and a PEG ratio of 0.53, reflecting strong expected earnings growth at a reasonable valuation. The company's AI-powered ad tools and a growing international user base have driven double-digit revenue growth, with Q1 2025 revenue up 16% year on year and global monthly active users reaching 570m. Despite these strengths, Pinterest remains heavily dependent on digital advertising, making it sensitive to shifts in advertiser budgets and broader economic cycles. It's also very geographically reliant on North America for revenues, and this represents a risk as well as an opportunity. The region represents less than one-fifth of total users but nearly 80% of sales. However, there's plenty to be positive about. Al really seems to be a game changer, and has contributed to the company's improving profitability and attractive growth profile. Alphabet trades at a forward P/E of 17.3 times. That's above the communications sector median of 13.6 but about 30% below its own five-year average, signalling a more attractive entry point relative to its history. The PEG ratio stands at 1.16, lower than the sector's 1.43, indicating solid expected earnings growth for its valuation. I'd also add that Alphabet is more than just a communications stock, which makes its valuation so attractive. Recent performance has been strong. In Q1 2025, Alphabet reported 12% revenue growth to $90.2bn, with Google Cloud up 28% and operating margin expanding to 34%. Risks? There are always risks even with some of the largest companies in the world. One here is Alphabet potentially being forced to divest Chrome in an anti-trust trial. However, for me, its wide economic moat and diversified growth engines underpin long-term appeal. I've recently bought both these stocks.

Samsung Confirms Upgrade Choice—Galaxy Users Must Now Decide
This decision defines the future of your phone. Republished on June 7 with reports into Google's new decision for Android users. A timely warning from Samsung this week, which neatly sets out the biggest upgrade decision now facing Android users. As whispers start to spread suggesting a disconnect between Samsung and Google at the heart of Android, this is critical. We're talking AI and the new features and offerings now hitting phones and PCs at breakneck speed. This is where Galaxy has an advantage, Samsung says, 'in privacy-first, AI-powered experiences' which can 'protect you in the era of AI.' The question the Galaxy-maker asks in its latest post is the right one: 'This level of personalization' brought by AI 'can be incredibly helpful, but the more your phone knows, the more there is to protect. So, what's keeping all that personal data secure?' Samsung's answer is Knox. 'Every Galaxy device is protected from the chip up by a multi-layered approach, which includes on-device personalization, user-controlled cloud processing, and ecosystem-wide protection through Samsung Knox Matrix.' This is Samsung's secure ecosystem that is the closest replica to Apple's securely walled garden currently available on Android. 'At the core of this system is Samsung Knox Vault, Samsung's hardware-based solution for your most sensitive information.' Knox is not new and neither is the concept of hardware-enabled Galaxy data security. What is new is segmenting sensitive the latest AI-related data from the rest, and securing that alongside the more traditional PINs, passwords and credit card numbers. 'Location service metadata from your most personal photos,' Samsung says, 'could easily give away the exact location where the image was taken.' And there's not much data more sensitive than who did what, where and when. 'In the era of AI, personal information like your home address, face clustering ID, person ID, pet type, scene type and more need to be encrypted and stored in a safe location. These things aren't just files — they are deeply connected to your daily life.' It's unclear exactly what is being or will be segmented and how this plays into the various opt-ins that Samsung has added to distinguish between on-device and cloud AI, between what is only within your secure enclave and what is outside. But it's difficult not to read this push as a play against the latest announcements from Google and the cloud-based AI that will now run riot across sensitive data, including emails and even cloud data storage. Yes, there are always opt-outs, but it's all or nothing for users who want AI but are not yet worrying about privacy. 'As Galaxy AI becomes more useful,' Samsung says, 'it also becomes more personal — learning how you use your device and adapting to your needs… Knox Vault is more than a security feature, it's Galaxy's promise that no matter how advanced your devices become, or how much AI evolves, your privacy is secured.' Google, meanwhile, will not make this decision easy for Samsung user. No one is rolling out new smartphone AI innovations faster, and it will always overshadow what can be done if users take a privacy-centric, device-only approach. Per Android Police, the latest update is 'Google's Gemini replacing Google Assistant as the default AI assistant, taking on all digital assistance responsibilities as Assistant is phased out later this year. Gemini is gaining 'Scheduled Actions,' allowing users to automate recurring tasks and information delivery at specific times.' This is the stepping stone to so-called Agenctic AI on phones, where monitoring data and events and activities enables an agent to make decisions autonomously on a smartphone owner's behalf. This next step, with 'Scheduled Actions streamlining routines [and] offering personalized updates,' is just the start. As Mashable says, 'When combined with computer vision, which is what allows a model to 'see' a user's screen, we get the agentic AI everyone is so excited about… Agentic AI tools could order groceries online, browse and buy the best-reviewed espresso machine for you, or even research and book vacations. In fact, Google is already taking steps in this direction with its new AI shopping experience.' Allowing AI access to smartphones with all the data and insight they contain, pushed this to a level even beyond Windows's controversial Recall. It's decision time.
