Trump to Bring Musk on Asia Trip, Avoid Nvidia and Huang Topics

The signal here is about who gets a seat at the table on a state visit, not the itinerary itself. Bringing Musk in an advisory capacity while explicitly steering clear of Jensen Huang and Nvidia suggests the administration is managing which corporate interests are visible on this trip, and which are deliberately kept off the agenda. For markets, the open question is whether that separation holds — the official's confidence that the Nvidia issue won't affect the visit is a claim worth testing as the trip unfolds.
