Chinese chip giants say they don't care about U.S. tariffs — many don't sell to the U.S. anyway due to existing sanctions

To add to this, it appears that only about 15% of China's exports go to the US. I thought it's much more than that.
2% of China's GDP also, so noticeable but not the knife in the side that the Whitehouse seems to think it is.
For this number, is it related to the Chinese government GDP numbers, or independently measured? My understanding is that the CCP use GDP differently that the West, in that they release numbers which are prescriptive estimates and goals, as opposed to statistical results.
Sorry for sharing an Instagram link but this beauty here. chef's kiss.
Loving the clarity of China's position on this
Ouch. Well said.
its down to 12%
US warmongering has forced China into a "delete America" program with critical priority for chips. In the short term, this harms humanity and US dominance through lower market access, and lower US R&D due to less market access. In long term, it harms US dominance by forcing China to surpass them.
Allowing an enemy to produce critical parts was also a non-starter for the usa though
Enemy is entirely US's choice. China did not deny PPE to US during covid, even if demand was larger than supply rates. Now that covid is over, PPE is imported from China again. National security can mean subsidies to allow factories to be ready to shift/ramp production, not because other nations have to be enemies, but because demand could skyrocket, and government could care about US lives. Manufacturing an enemy risks those lives.
US weapon systems rely on Chinese electronics to this day. Destroying US clean energy and EV sector will destroy domestic supply chain expansion, and retain Chinese dominance over US weapon systems, and future economy. A pure propaganda misinformation system for warmongering evil is no basis for progress or sustainability, or recognizing weaknesses that could have time to fix.
But war on China move I referred to was banning sales of US patent protected fab equipment, and advanced chips to China. That is the harm to western innovation that dooms it from loss of access to world's largest electronic device market. Though in the long term, humanity will be benefitted from the competition from China. Just US stock market/companies will suffer from the policy.
Why is China an enemy of the USA?
Huawei chips are tariff free?
American manufacturers don't buy Chinese chips because they're really bad
Yeah this view is pretty dated. Like it or not, China has caught up and started leading in several industries over the last 10 years. They have the capacity, skills, and domestic demand for competitive high quality products. Their domestic chip from SIMV is only a few years behind at "5nm" which was the 2021 standard. I'm still playing modern games on a 8 year old i7. Most consumers who use their phones for social media probably wouldn't notice much difference between a 2021 phone vs 2025 phone besides a better camera and software.
Do you have a five year old phone or CPU? Congrats, you have the same performance of Chinese chips. Except you paid 10x more
at least the drivers work
Shroedinger's Tariffs?
I think the cat is definitely dead
Still bouncing though.
Yeah but it’s being “weekend at Bernie’d” and half the country thinks it’s fine.
If a tariff falls on a product category but no one is around to hear it, did it even make a sound?
