Nvidia Corp NVDA stock is trading higher Friday despite reports concerning U.S. Chips Act policies against China, and rival Huawei Technologies Co's Kirin 9000s processor continues to make headlines.
The U.S. remained vigilant over its semiconductor technology aid concerning China.
It remained adamant about restricting companies receiving these funds from significantly increasing their production or expanding their manufacturing footprint in China.
China, including Hong Kong, accounted for more than 20% of Nvidia's sales in its latest financial year ending January 2023, while Taiwan represented more than 25%.
Meanwhile, Huawei showcased its Kirin 9000s processor, which boasts 5G wireless capabilities.
Huawei's Kirin-powered Mate 60 smartphone series saw over 300,000 units sold within its initial two weeks in China on the heels of Apple Inc's AAPL newest iPhone launch.
Meanwhile, Nvidia partner Alphabet Inc GOOG GOOGL Google snubbed reports of dumping Broadcom Inc AVGO as a supplier of artificial intelligence chips.
The industry sees Broadcom as the second-biggest winner from the generative AI boom after Nvidia.
Price Action: NVDA shares traded higher by 0.99% at $414.04 on the last check Friday.
