Nvidia's China Nightmare? H20 Chip Faces Backdoor Allegations in High-Stakes Trade Showdown

China's been turning up the heat on Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), and not in a good way. This week, the country's top internet watchdog summoned Nvidia reps over what it calls serious security risks tied to the H20 chipa product Nvidia designed specifically to meet U.S. export rules. State media pulled no punches either. In a commentary published Friday, the People's Daily warned of potential chip backdoors triggering a nightmare, saying it couldn't allow infected semiconductors into its digital infrastructure. Nvidia responded firmly: Cybersecurity is critically important to us, adding that its chips don't contain any remote access pathways. Still, in today's geopolitical climate, that reassurance may not be enough. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Signs with NVDA. Here's where things get messier. Just a few weeks ago, the U.S. agreed to lift restrictions on H20 sales to China as part of a broader deal involving rare-earth magnetsmaterials critical for everything from smartphones to fighter jets. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick had framed the H20 resumption as a meaningful breakthrough after bilateral talks in London, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the magnet issue was solved. But with Beijing now putting the H20 back under the microscope, it's unclear whether Nvidia has actually received the licenses it needs to ship the chips. And if China decides the H20 isn't up to pareither technically or politicallythose sales may stall before they even start. Meanwhile, CEO Jensen Huang has been walking a tightrope. Fresh off a high-profile visit to Beijing, Huang praised China's AI momentum and national champions like DeepSeek, all while pushing back on the idea that Nvidia would ever install surveillance backdoors into its products. He called the suggestion not only false, but bad business. Still, the reality is this: Nvidia's H20, already weaker than its flagship GPUs, now faces a political test that could matter more than its specs. Investors watching the tech standoff might want to pay close attention to what happens nextbecause this chip is turning into a geopolitical bargaining chip. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

Figma stock gains 5% after blockbuster 250% debut rally

Figma (FIG) stock seesawed on Friday, ending the day up a bit more than 5% after dipping negative throughout morning trading. Friday's moves come after shares in Figma rocketed upward by 250% in Thursday's blockbuster public market debut. The design software company priced its IPO at $33 per share late Wednesday, and the stock did not begin trading until nearly 2:00 p.m. ET on Thursday. Shares opened for trade at $85 and were halted more than once Thursday afternoon due to volatility as traders rushed into the name amid what's become a frenzied IPO market for new tech issues. Figma's IPO price gave the company a market value near $20 billion. As of the closing bell on Friday, the company was worth roughly $59 billion. Figma's IPO price came in above estimates of $30-$32 per share, signaling bullish investor interest in the company. As part of the offering, Figma raised about $1.2 billion in a sale of 36.94 million shares, split between the company's sale of 12.47 million shares and existing shareholders' sale of 24.46 million shares. The company's current valuation has made it worth close to triple the $20 billion price tag for which software giant Adobe (ADBE) had tried to acquire Figma in 2023 before having to cancel the deal after anti-competition pushback from European regulators. This year saw rapid growth for Figma, led by 33-year-old CEO Dylan Field, as the design software and collaboration toolmaker reported revenue growth of over 46% year over year, according to securities filings. The company noted that more than 75% of the Forbes 2000 companies use its software. The IPO was one of the most successful of the year, beating out the performance of the previous 2025 IPO darling, Circle Internet Group (CRCL), which popped by 168% in its first day of trading in June. Circle is up more than 490% since its IPO. AI play CoreWeave (CRWV) has also seen its shares rise more than 190% since its debut in March. The success of Figma's offering is the latest sign that the year of dealmaking called for by Wall Street may finally be here after a first half that saw M&A stymied by tariff uncertainty and a market downturn.
