Netherlands’ incoming cabinet leans tougher on China after Nexperia ownership row

Super Micro board shakeup after indictment over Nvidia-chip exports
Super Micro’s co‑founder resigned after a U.S. indictment alleging covert shipments of NVDA:US GPU‑equipped servers to China; the stock dived ~33% and regulators sharpen scrutiny.

CK Hutchison launches arbitration after Panama court ruling on port concession
Following a Panamanian tribunal ruling that declared its port concession unconstitutional after a comptroller audit flagged large shortfalls, CK Hutchison has initiated international arbitration.

China lodges firm protest as EU opens subsidies probe into wind sector

Intel Reconsiders Offering 18A Node to External Customers

TerraPower won federal clearance to begin on‑site work for its Natrium demonstration but is facing internal unrest after staff raised questions about historical board connections to Jeffrey Epstein; that governance distraction increases financing, insurance and state‑permitting risk for a ~$4 billion, 2031‑targeted deployment even as core technical metrics (345 MW output, ~3‑year factory build cadence) remain unchanged.
China Says It Is Watching U.S. Plans to Recast Tariff Regime After Court Ruling
Beijing says it is conducting a methodical cross‑agency review after the U.S. Supreme Court curtailed one emergency tariff authority; China is tracking Washington’s immediate use of alternative tools — including a temporary 10% Section 122 surcharge and retained Section 232/301 duties — and watching market and regional capital flows as investors reposition (Hong Kong’s HSCEI jumped ~2.8% with Alibaba and Tencent up about 3%).
US AI Concerns Push Global Capital into Asia’s Chip Suppliers
Worries in US markets about AI-driven disruption are accelerating a tactical reallocation of capital into Asian semiconductor suppliers and related infrastructure, lifting regional benchmarks and re‑rating equipment, foundry and memory names. The shift is reinforced by industry results and policy signals — from ASML order backlogs to reports of Nvidia system access in China and stronger capex guidance at TSMC — but it concentrates risk in a handful of suppliers and geographies.
