Nvidia expects $5.5 billion in charges tied to the Trump administration's new export restrictions on H20 chips to China
Briefly

Nvidia expects to incur approximately $5.5 billion in charges as a result of the Trump administration's export control measures targeting its H20 chips, according to a recent SEC filing. This export rule mandates Nvidia to obtain licenses for sending these chips to China, necessitating adjustments in inventory and creating potential losses in future sales. Consequently, the anticipated charges will affect Nvidia’s first-quarter earnings. The situation has led to a more than 5% decline in Nvidia’s stock following the announcement, reflecting investor concerns over the implications of the trade regulations amid an ongoing AI arms race.
