Bloomberg Daybreak: Asia Edition

US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on Monday held their first talks since agreeing to a tariff truce last month, discussing trade, Taiwan and Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Trump said the telephone call was "very good" and that the leaders spoke about purchases of soybeans and other farm products as well as curbing shipments of illegal fentanyl. The US president said he agreed to visit Beijing in April, and that he had invited Xi for a state visit next year. "Our relationship with China is extremely strong!" Trump posted on social media. "There has been significant progress on both sides in keeping our agreements current and accurate. Now we can set our sights on the big picture." But the US president's readout of the call sidestepped one issue — the self-governing island of Taiwan — that was a central focus for Xi. The Chinese leader told Trump that the return of Taiwan to China is a key part of the post-World War II international order, according to a Chinese Foreign Ministry statement. Xi also said the two countries should keep the positive momentum generated during their meeting last month in South Korea and expand cooperation, the statement said.

Also, the White House says President Trump is weighing whether to allow Nvidia Corp. to sell advanced artificial intelligence chips to China and will be the one to make a final decision on the matter.

Takaichi and Japan Inflation, Nvidia's S&P Gains Evaporate

Nvidia Corp. delivered a surprisingly strong revenue forecast and pushed back on the idea that the AI industry is in a bubble, easing concerns that had spread across the tech sector. The world's most valuable company expects sales of about $65 billion in the January quarter — roughly $3 billion more than analysts predicted. Nvidia also said that a half-trillion-dollar revenue bonanza due in coming quarters may be even bigger than anticipated. The outlook signals that demand remains robust for Nvidia's artificial intelligence accelerators, the pricey and powerful chips used to develop AI models. Nvidia had faced growing fears in recent weeks that the runaway spending on such equipment wasn't sustainable. And we heard from CEO Jensen Huang. He spoke to Bloomberg's Ed Ludlow.
 
Plus - Many Federal Reserve officials said it would likely be appropriate to keep interest rates steady for the remainder of 2025, according to minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee's October 28-29 meeting. The record of the meeting, released Wednesday in Washington, also showed "several" policymakers were against lowering the Fed's benchmark rate at that gathering.
"Many participants suggested that, under their economic outlooks, it would likely be appropriate to keep the target range unchanged for the rest of the year," the minutes said. Still, "several participants" said another cut "could well be appropriate in December if the economy evolved about as they expected" before the next meeting. For his perspective, we spoke to Clayton Triick, Head of Portfolio Management: Public Strategies, Angel Oak Capital Advisors.

Nvidia's Upbeat Forecast, A Conversation with CEO Jensen Huang

Nvidia, the world's most valuable company, is set to deliver a quarterly report Wednesday that could assure Wall Street that the AI computing boom continues apace — or fuel fears that the tech industry is in a bubble. Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang said late last month that he has orders that will deliver $500 billion of revenue over the next few quarters and that spending on new equipment is increasingly paying off for customers. Still, the bubble fears have contributed to a recent stock selloff, with investors fretting that capital spending on artificial intelligence infrastructure will create a glut. For a preview, we speak to Jed Ellerbroek, Portfolio Manager at Argent Capital Management.
 
Plus - the New Economy Forum in Singapore has begun. Bloomberg had the chance to catch up with top business names. That includes Bob Diamond, Atlas Mechant Capital founding partner and CEO and former Barclays CEO. He spoke to Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Avril Hong.
