Nvidia hit with surprise effective ban on chip sales to China

Just days after Nvidia and otherrchip stocks rallied on news that thee Trump Administration would pause tariffs on chips and electronic goods, the White House has informed the company it would require a special license for exports of its H20 chips. The H20 chips were designed especially for the Chinese market in an effort to comply with U.S. restrictions on chip exports to China. No licenses for shipments into China have ever been granted, given the US government’s concern that the chips could be used to build AI supercomputers in the country, so the new rules are effectively a ban.
Shares of Nvidia closed down 6.87% today, April 16
