Nvidia Rises on Report China May Allow Limited H200 Sales in $50 Billion Market

3 articles · Updated · CNBC · Jul 8

Summary

  • Nvidia shares climbed Wednesday after The Information reported China may let a handful of AI companies buy limited quantities of H200 chips.
  • The report matters because Washington already approved H200 export licenses earlier this year, but Nvidia still has generated no China revenue as Beijing has restricted imports over security concerns.
  • China access remains uncertain: a January Reuters report said ByteDance, Alibaba and Tencent could buy H200 chips, yet no meaningful orders or sales followed.
  • The move stood out in a weaker market hit by oil and rates—WTI crude jumped to $74 and the 10-year Treasury yield rose to about 4.58%—while AI stocks rebounded.
