Two Chinese nationals in California accused of illegally shipping Nvidia AI chips to China
By Karen Freifeld (Reuters) -Two Chinese nationals in California were arrested and charged with illegally shipping tens of millions of dollars' worth of AI chips to China, including Nvidia H100s, the U.S. Justice Department said on Tuesday. Chuan Geng, 28, of Pasadena, and Shiwei Yang, 28, of El Monte, exported the advanced Nvidia chips and other technology to China from October 2022 through July 2025 without the required licenses from the U.S. Commerce Department, the Justice Department said, citing an affidavit filed with the complaint. According to the affidavit, Geng and Yang's El Monte-based company, ALX Solutions, was founded in 2022, shortly after the U.S. imposed sweeping export controls on technology to China to slow Beijing's military modernization and began to require licenses for the chips. China opposed the U.S. move as harming normal trade. Over 20 shipments from ALX went to shipping and freight forwarding companies in Singapore and Malaysia, which are often used as transshipment points for illegal goods to China, a federal agent, who works for the Commerce Department, said in the affidavit. ALX received a $1 million payment from a China-based company in January 2024 and other payments from companies in Hong Kong and China, not from the freight forwarding companies, the agent said. Nvidia H100s are advanced chips that can be used to train large language models and many other applications. Records show that from at least August 2023 to July 2024, ALX Solutions bought over 200 Nvidia H100 chips from San Jose, California-based server maker Super Micro Computer, declaring that the customers were in Singapore and Japan, the agent said. On one 2023 invoice valued at $28,453,855, ALX said the customer was in Singapore, but a U.S. export control officer in Singapore could not verify the chips arrived in the country and the company did not exist at the listed location, the document says. "This case demonstrates that smuggling is a nonstarter," a Nvidia spokesperson said in a statement. "We primarily sell our products to well-known help us ensure that all sales comply with U.S. export control rules." Diverted products have "no service, support or updates," the statement added. Super Micro said in a statement it was "firmly committed to compliance with all U.S. export control regulations." It said it did not comment on ongoing legal matters, but cooperated with authorities in any such proceedings. Geng and Yang appeared in federal court in Los Angeles on Monday, the Justice Department said. Geng, a permanent resident, was released on $250,000 bond. Yang, who overstayed her visa, has a detention hearing on August 12. Lawyers for the defendants did not respond to requests for comment.

Study explores how ABQ, Santa Fe could make dent in housing shortage with ‘dorm-style' units
Researchers from Pew Charitable Trusts say a floorplan like this could make a huge dent in Albuquerque's housing shortage while also converting vacant downtown office space. This "dorm-style" living would mean rents of about $700, with shared restrooms and kitchens. (Photo courtesy Pew Charitable Trusts) Researchers with a national think tank on Tuesday published a report that offers a unique solution to Albuquerque and Santa Fe's housing shortages: affordable, 'co-living' complexes with shared bathrooms and kitchens. In Albuquerque, the Pew Charitable Trusts' proposal represents a possible key to the puzzle of converting vacant office spaces into housing. By turning the centers of office complex floorplans into shared bathrooms or kitchen spaces, all renters will live in apartments with natural light, and developers can keep costs low by reducing the number of individual kitchens and plumbing features. Albuquerque had a 24% downtown office vacancy rate in the first quarter of 2025, according to the report, which translates to approximately 535,000 square feet of downtown vacant office space. New state study suggests homelessness far undercounted in New Mexico Across the city in the first quarter of 2025, nearly 2 million square feet of office space lies empty, representing a city-wide vacancy rate of 14%, according to a market report from Colliers investment management. According to the report, that's a decrease, but only slightly, from the 16% vacancy rate in the first quarter of 2021, when many offices across the city and nationwide were emptied due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While office buildings in Albuquerque sit empty, homelessness has greatly increased across the city, growing by 108% since 2017, a rate more than two times the national average. Median rents here also increased 46% between 2019 and 2024. Santa Fe has seen similar growth. Alex Horowitz, director of the Pew Charitable Trusts' housing policy initiative, told Source New Mexico on Monday that 'flexible co-living,' which he also called 'dorm-style housing,' would make the most sense in both Albuquerque and Santa Fe for low-income, rent-burdened households, mostly of one or two people. 'This is not housing for people coming off the street, necessarily, but it would slow inflows into homelessness sharply by offering housing at a lower price point,' he said. In consultation with the Gensler architecture firm, researchers mocked up floor plans based on actual Albuquerque buildings, Horowitz said, and arrived at estimated rents of $700 and approximate public subsidies of about $230,000. Amid funding cut threats and homeless camp sweeps, a volunteer loses hope but keeps counting In such a building, 'instead of having 60 bathrooms, you might have 18 or something, and that's plenty, but that gets costs down sharply. Same with the kitchens,' he said. 'And by being located near commerce, right near stores, near transit, that puts people in a good spot to be able to get around, get to a job, school, services — whatever they need.' And Horowitz said the same concept is true for Santa Fe, even though it doesn't have the same central business district or inventory of large office buildings. Pew recommends developers build 'neighborhood-scale' co-living apartment complexes, a model researchers said 'may also be suitable for similar communities across the state.' 'In Albuquerque and Santa Fe this would be a way to add a lot of low cost housing that would be much less expensive to build than regular apartments and certainly less than houses, and would enable lower rents in two cities that badly need housing at a lower price point,' he said. Current median rents in Santa Fe are nearly $1,500, according to the report. Pew estimates rents would be $800 at one of the complexes it hopes developers would build. Horowitz estimated current per-unit building costs for developers are about $300,000. By converting Albuquerque office space into apartments, that price plummets to $130,000 a unit, he said. In Santa Fe, even with the cost of building a new complex, the savings the co-living model produces brings the price down to $184,000 a unit, according to the report. In addition to the report, Horowitz and a co-author wrote an article about their proposal here, and Horowitz will testify next week in Los Lunas to the interim legislative committee tasked with rural development and policy.

Colliers engineering segment grows 67% in Q2
This story was originally published on Facilities Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Facilities Dive newsletter. Colliers reported 18% revenue growth year over year to $1.35 billion as it benefitted from strong momentum in all three of its segments, the real estate services and engineering company said in its second-quarter 2025 earnings report. The firm's engineering segment increased 67% year over year to $436 million, from $261.3 million as it capitalized on tailwinds in infrastructure development and energy projects, among other things, the company said in its earnings presentation. Its backlog of engineering work is worth 12 months of revenue, but it will need to grow even more to meet demand, Colliers Chief Financial Officer Christian Mayer said on the company's July 31 earnings call. 'We are having success with gaining wins on contracts for new infrastructure projects, larger scale type projects as well in the private sector,' Mayer said. 'We feel very confident about our pipeline of revenue in that business, and we're tracking right where we expect it to be in terms of our planning.' The company's real estate services segment grew revenue 4% year over year, led by U.S. markets. Globally, leasing declined modestly due to tariff-driven uncertainties, especially in industrial, the company said. 'While office leasing was strong, it was offset by weaker industrial volumes due to tariff-related and other macroeconomic uncertainty,' Mayer said. 'Leasing has been challenged in the first half of the year. So that implies we're going to have some healthy uptick in leasing activity — and we expect that anyways for Q3 and Q4 — to deliver on the full year, mid-single-digit area in terms of growth.' A large focus of the earnings call was Colliers' acquisition of a 60% stake in Roundshield Partners, a European credit platform, that will boost its student housing and hospitality capabilities, and the rebranding of its investment management division as Harrison Street Asset Management. The company also said four tuck-in acquisitions in its engineering segment and two in its real estate services segment are expected to boost its value creation potential. The engineering additions are: Terra Consulting Group, a telecommunications infrastructure consulting firm based in Chicago; Higher Ground Consulting, a geotechnical and environmental specialist in Western Canada; Herold Engineering, an engineering consulting firm in British Columbia; and Cambium, another engineering consulting firm, in Ontario.
