HONG KONG: Asian stocks squeezed out more gains Tuesday (June 10) as the latest round of China-US trade talks moved into a second day, with one of Donald Trump's top advisers saying he expected "a big, strong handshake".
There is optimism the negotiations -- which come after the US president spoke to Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping last week -- will bring some much-needed calm to markets and ease tensions between the economic superpowers.
