The current market landscape is characterized by significant crosscurrents, with notable disparities in performance across sectors. While Alibaba has surged 74%, NVIDIA experienced a substantial market cap decline, reflecting a complex environment where primary capital markets are thriving despite broader volatility.

Huawei is shifting away from American software, preparing to launch its own desktop operating systems as its Microsoft license expires. With limited options due to being on the U.S. Entity List, the company is likely to expand its HarmonyOS and consider Linux distributions, potentially impacting Microsoft's market share. This move could also benefit Linux, which has been gaining traction as an alternative to Windows.
Huawei faces a critical juncture as its Windows license is set to expire, potentially forcing a shift to Linux or its own HarmonyOS for future PCs. This transition could hinder its appeal in markets outside China, where Windows dominates with over 70% market share. The company plans to release an "AI PC" powered by its Kunpeng CPU and HarmonyOS, while also introducing a MateBook D16 Linux Edition, though Linux remains a niche player in the consumer market.
Huawei has introduced the Kirin X90 chip, marking a shift away from Intel processors and Windows software due to US restrictions. The chip, developed by HiSilicon, has received a Level 2 national security certification and is expected to utilize SMIC’s 7nm process and Taishan cores. As Huawei transitions its PCs and laptops to its own hardware and software, it may launch an "AI PC" running HarmonyOS as early as April, following the end of its Windows license.
Microsoft has issued a warning about a new remote access trojan that specifically targets cryptocurrency wallets. This malware poses significant risks to users, potentially compromising their digital assets and personal information. Vigilance and enhanced security measures are advised to protect against such threats.

Tan aims to enhance AI chip production and expand Intel's footprint in robotics and foundational AI models.

Elon Musk and Sam Altman have agreed to a trial starting December 8 to resolve disputes over OpenAI's shift to a for-profit model, which Musk claims breaches prior agreements. Musk argues this change could cause "irreparable harm" to his competing AI venture, xAI, and seeks to include claims regarding OpenAI's duties as a charitable trust and contract violations. The judge overseeing the case has indicated that part of the dispute will go to trial, with some claims potentially extending to 2027 or 2028.
