US Delists CXMT and YMTC From Chinese Tech Blacklist, Easing Memory Imports

TL;DR
The US BIS reportedly removed ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) and Yangtze Memory Technologies Corporation (YMTC) from the Section 1260H export-restrictions list, potentially easing Western OEMs' access to CXMT DRAM and YMTC NAND, though YMTC may remain under Commerce Department scrutiny; the update comes as Alibaba and Baidu were added to the blacklist, and CXMT’s mass production of HBM3 (amid a Huawei tie) could draw Pentagon attention.
