The Trump administration is set to tighten semiconductor restrictions on China, building on previous actions. Key discussions involve blocking Japanese and Dutch engineers from servicing chip-making equipment in China, alongside potential sanctions on Chinese firms to limit advancements in AI and military technology.Officials are also considering stricter regulations on Nvidia's chip exports and revisiting maintenance service limitations for semiconductor equipment. These measures, which may take months to finalize, indicate a significant effort to curb China's technological progress.
Shares of Japanese semiconductor equipment makers plummeted on February 25, driven by fears of tighter US restrictions on China's chip industry. Tokyo Electron Ltd. fell 4.4%, while Advantest Corp. and Kokusai Electric Corp. dropped over 5%. This selloff reflected broader concerns in Japan's tech sector, exacerbated by reports of Microsoft canceling data center leases, raising doubts about AI demand.
The SMI showed strength in pre-market trading, with the euro gaining against the franc. Japanese stocks are influenced by foreign factors, as noted by Fumio Matsumoto of Okasan Securities, with Fast Retailing rising 2.9% and Tokyo Electron up 3.6%. However, Advantest's 1.33% decline weighed on the Nikkei, despite SoftBank's 3.72% gain.
