Shares of Alibaba surged 8% despite disappointing earnings, leading a 2.5% rally in Chinese stocks after President Trump met with Chinese leader Xi Jinping. The meeting boosted optimism for improved U.S.-China relations, sparking heavy call option buying in Alibaba and China-focused ETFs like KWEB. Ford Motor also saw a 13% jump after a positive analyst note on its energy-storage deal with China's CATL, with bullish options activity reflecting investor confidence. This 'Trump effect' could catalyze renewed momentum in Chinese tech stocks and related sectors.
