: Nvidia in the middle of the battlefield, Part 1. The current trade war between US and China is creating serious problems to American semiconductor companies like Nvidia, Intel and Qualcomm that produce chips for both sides of the battlefield.
: Nvidia in the middle of the battlefield, Part 2. On Nov.19, posted a story titled “A Silicon Valley Tech Leader Walks a High Wire Between the U.S. and China” by Dan Strumpf and Wenxin Fan where the authors wrote in particular about Nvidia.
: Nvidia in the middle of the battlefield, Part 3. Nvidia is semiconductor maker based in Santa Clara, California that develops and produces very advanced chips for clients like Microsoft (US), Uber (US), Alibaba (China) and Baidu (China). Now, it is in huge dilemma.
: Nvidia in the middle of the battlefield, Part 4. According to story, Nvidia makes advanced computer chips that are key for artificial intelligence applications, used by Uber Technologies for self-driving cars and for Microsoft for cloud-computing services.
: Nvidia in the middle of the battlefield, Part 5. The story posted by also says that Nvidia makes special processors for Chinese tech giants like Alibaba and Baidu. And its chips are used for facial-recognition and surveillance technologies of Chinese military.
: Nvidia in the middle of the battlefield, Part 6. says “Almost 20% of Nvidia’s $9.7 billion in revenue last year came f/China. Many of its chips are used there for assembly into other products, and it has invested heavily to tap China’s burgeoning AI industries.”
: Nvidia in the middle of the battlefield, Part 7. Nvidia is a company of engineers and technology developers that till now didn’t make big lobby in Washington and at this moment is in huge dilemma due to political decisions of Washington and the Beijing's reactions.
: Nvidia in the middle of the battlefield, Part 8. In my view of analyst, I think the Nvidia dilemma is not only a revenue problem. If it cuts with the Chinese in war environment, it gives the possibility that anybody makes reverse engineering of its chips. Big loss!
