3 prediction markets price this story:
- Will Trump and Xi kiss at their summit? — resolved “No” on 26 Sept 2026. The Yes outcome occurs if Donald Trump and Xi Jinping share an in-person kiss while Xi is on US soil, supported by video or photo evidence released during the summit days. The No outcome applies if no such kiss happens, if the required media does not appear in time, or if Xi never enters US territory by the October 7 deadline.
- Trump endorses China's claim to Taiwan by end of summit? — resolved “No” on 26 Sept 2026. The outcome is Yes if Donald Trump makes an explicit public statement affirming China's sovereignty over Taiwan during Xi Jinping's visit. The outcome is No if he does not make such a statement, or if Xi fails to enter US territory by the October 7 deadline. Readers often mistake general restatements of the One China policy for an endorsement, but these do not count.
- Will the Trump and Xi handshake last less than 2 seconds during their summit? — resolved “No” on 24 Sept 2026.
