Since the US first announced reciprocal tariffs in early April 2025, President Donald Trump has frequently delivered “surprises” to the global market over nearly four months. Recently, he took to social media to publicly criticize Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan, demanding his immediate resignation. He also called on companies like Nvidia and AMD to hand over to the US government 15% of their revenue from sales of specific AI chips to China, sparking a new round of market turmoil.
Samsung Electronics is expected to supply Nvidia with its newest 12-high HBM3E memory chips, as multiple industry sources say the companies are in advanced talks over shipment volumes and delivery timelines. The potential agreement could see Samsung provide between 30,000 and 50,000 units.
