President Donald Trump imposed a new 25% tariff on certain advanced computing chips, targeting products such as Nvidia’s H200 and AMD’s MI325X. The White House said chips imported to strengthen the U.S. technology supply chain could qualify for exemptions, though criteria remain unclear.

The move reflects Trump’s push to expand domestic tech manufacturing and U.S. leadership in AI. Nvidia, central to the AI boom and led by CEO Jensen Huang, was cited as strategically vital. Trump invoked national security powers under Section 232.
