US–China Summit Watch: Trump’s Beijing visit (May 13–15) is set to spotlight Iran, Taiwan, AI and arms sales, with Washington pushing China to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz while Beijing signals it wants “more stability” and low expectations for big breakthroughs. Taiwan Defense Budget: Taipei’s legislature cut the equipment budget for the porcupine strategy, approving about US$25B instead of the larger plan—an issue now landing right as Trump meets Xi. Market Mood: Oil is rising on the US–Iran deadlock, keeping investors cautious even as AI-linked stocks stay supported. AI Chip Supply Chain: TSMC is again framed as the AI infrastructure bottleneck, while Intel’s foundry push gets a boost from reports of Apple chip manufacturing. Taiwan Exports & Health Tech: Taiwan’s moth orchids and anthuriums cleared for export to New Zealand under new quarantine rules; meanwhile, Taiwan-linked healthcare AI collaboration is expanding in the region. Security & Politics: Taiwan faces fresh pressure as a former soldier and an active-duty officer were indicted over alleged classified leaks to a Chinese intelligence operative.
