China welcomes resumption of Nvidia H20 AI chip sales; Japan warns tariffs ‘not right tool'

Update: Date: Title: Introduction: China says 'win-win cooperation is the right path' as Nvidia H20 sales cleared Content: Good morning and welcome to our rolling coverage of business, the financial markets and the world economy. Relations between the US and China appear to have warmed, slightly, after chipmaker Nvidia was given a green light by Washington to resume sales of its H20 AI chip to Chinese companies. Nvidia's CEO, Jensen Huang, revealed earlier this week that the US government has assured his company that licences for H20 chip sales to China would be granted, and that deliveries could start soon. That reverses a restriction announced in April, when the White House announced tighter controls on exports of computer chips used for artificial intelligence. And today, Beijing has welcomed this change of heart, confirming that the US has 'taken initiatives' to approve H20 sales to China again. China's Commerce Ministry said in a statement that 'win-win cooperation' was the right path to go down, and that it hopes the two countries can 'meet each other half way' and work together. The ministry also urged the US to abandon its 'zero-sum mentality' and cancel 'unreasonable' trade restrictions on China, warning that 'suppression' will not lead to solutions. The H20 graphics processing unit, or GPU, is an advanced chip for use in AI systems. But it's less powerful than Nvidia's top semiconductors today, as it was designed to comply with US restrictions for exports of AI chips to China. Earlier this week, commerce secretary Howard Lutnick revealed that the renewed sale of H20 chips to China was linked to a rare earths magnet deal. He also claimed Nvidia would only be selling China its 'fourth best' chip. Even so, the prospect of more sales to China pushed Nvidia's shares to record highs this week.

Japan told the gathering of advanced economies in Durban that tariffs aren't the right way to fix trade imbalances. Finance minister Katsunobu Kato told reporters at the G20: 'Japan said that tariffs aren't really the right tool to fix excessive current accounts imbalances.' Kato argued that countries facing such situations need to address them through domestic efforts, rather than slapping new levies on imports. The US's trade balance (rarely the healthiest) has actually worsened this year, as American companies raced to import goods before tariffs were imposed. However, US Treasury secretary Scott Bessent won't have heard Kato's message as he's not attending the G20. A finance ministry official accompanying Kato explained that many G20 members argued that market stresses appear to have eased somewhat, Bloomberg reports, as the world economy hasn't suffered as much as expected from the trade war [although, of course, some of Trump's new tariffs now don't start until 1 August].

Nvidia to resume H20 GPU chip sales to Beijing, launches China-compliant model

July 14 (Reuters) - Nvidia (NVDA.O), opens new tab said on Monday that it will resume sales of its H20 graphics processing unit (GPU) chips to China and has introduced a new model tailored to meet regulatory requirements in the Chinese market. According to a company blog post, Nvidia is filing applications to resume H20 sales with the U.S. government and expects to get the licenses soon. Deliveries are expected to begin shortly thereafter. The company announced a new RTX Pro GPU designed specifically for China. Nvidia described the model as "fully compliant" and suitable for digital twin AI applications in sectors such as smart factories and logistics. The chipmaker's CEO Jensen Huang met with U.S. President Donald Trump and policymakers in Washington and later with officials in Beijing, as part of efforts to promote AI cooperation and highlight Nvidia's support for open-source research and global AI development, the company said. In May, Reuters reported that the company was planning to release a downgraded version of its H20 artificial intelligence chip for China following U.S. export restrictions on the original model.

US senators warn Nvidia CEO about upcoming China trip

SAN FRANCISCO, July 11 (Reuters) - A bipartisan pair of U.S. senators sent a letter to Nvidia (NVDA.O), opens new tab CEO Jensen Huang on Friday about an upcoming trip to China, warning the CEO to refrain from meeting with companies that are suspected of undermining U.S. chip export controls. The letter from Republican Senator Jim Banks and Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren asked Huang to also abstain from meeting with representatives of companies that are working with the People's Republic of China's military or intelligence bodies and are named on the U.S. restricted export list. "We are worried that your trip to the PRC could legitimize companies that cooperate closely with the Chinese military or involve discussing exploitable gaps in U.S. export controls," the senators wrote. Huang planned to visit China on Friday. An Nvidia spokesperson said, "American wins" when its technology sets "the global standard," and that China has one of the largest bodies of software developers in the world. AI software "should run best on the U.S. technology stack, encouraging nations worldwide to choose America," the spokesperson said. In May at the Computex trade show in Taipei, Huang praised President Donald Trump's decision to scrap some artificial intelligence chip export controls and described the prior diffusion rules as a failure. U.S. restrictions in April on AI chips Nvidia modified to comply with export controls to China would reduce Nvidia's revenue by $15 billion, the CEO said. The hardware necessary to power advanced AI is now subject to a bipartisan consensus related to the free export of such hardware, the senators wrote. Advanced AI hardware could "accelerate the PRC's effort to modernize its military," the letter reads. U.S. lawmakers have grown increasingly concerned about efforts to circumvent export controls to China and proposed a law that would force AI chip companies to verify the location of their products. Last month, Reuters reported that a senior U.S. official said the AI firm DeepSeek is aiding China's military and intelligence operations, and sought to use shell companies to circumvent U.S. AI chip export controls to China. Nvidia is planning to launch a cheaper version of its flagship Blackwell AI chips for China, Reuters reported in May.
