Reuters: Chinese firms are hoarding Samsung chips in anticipation of new restrictions from the United States
August 6th. /MEDIA TALK/.On Tuesday, August 6, it became known that Chinese technology firms, including Huawei and Baidu, as well as small organizations in the country are creating stocks of high-bandwidth memory semiconductors from Samsung Electronics in anticipation of U.S. restrictions on the export of these chips. This was reported by Reuters.

The trend has been observed since the beginning of the year, the publication noted. So, in 2024, China accounted for about 30% of Samsung's semiconductor shipments.

These actions by China show that the country retains technological ambitions amid rising trade tensions with the United States and other countries, the media added.

Recall that at the end of July it was reported that the United States wants to limit the export of certain technologies from a number of countries to China. At the same time, it became known that the administration of President Joe Biden plans to expand the capabilities of the States to stop the import of semiconductors to China.
