Taiwan raids Super Micro as AI-chip export probe widens, SMCI shares slide
Taiwanese authorities raided Super Micro Computer and related entities in an expanded probe into alleged Nvidia AI-chip smuggling to China via the company’s servers; six individuals and three affiliated firms were searched, including SMCI’s Taiwan office, with shares dropping as much as 9% before bouncing back. Super Micro says it’s cooperating. The raids mark Taiwan’s first public enforcement action on AI-chip diversion amid U.S. export controls, and Taiwan is weighing making such exports a crime since most AI chips are produced in Taiwan.
