China Exports Surge on AI Demand as Trump Pushes Crypto Clarity and Mining Investment
China's July exports exceeded forecasts, driven by AI sector growth and companies rushing shipments ahead of potential tariffs. President Trump announced support for the CLARITY Act to establish US crypto dominance, though Bloomberg reports the bill contains an ethics provision that could allow him to defer capital gains taxes on his reported $1.4 billion crypto holdings. The provision has emerged as the key obstacle to securing necessary Democratic votes, with the Senate facing a tight deadline for passage.
Separately, Trump revealed plans for a meeting with President Xi and announced $180 million in grants to expand mining industry education and critical mineral production.
