U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick reportedly said on Monday that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has “good reasons” for wanting to sell his company’s chips to China.
In an interview with Bloomberg, Lutnick confirmed that the Trump administration is mulling over whether or not to sell Nvidia’s (NVDA) advanced artificial intelligence chips to China. He added that the President would have the final say on how that finally plays out.
“He’s got all the information. He’s got lots and lots of experts talking to him, and he’s going to decide which way to go forward.”
