On May 15, 2026, President Donald Trump was accused of corruption after disclosures revealed major stock trades in his name. Reports focused on purchases of Nvidia shares, a leading company in AI chip technology, and raised concerns over national security. Critics argued that Trump allowed Nvidia to sell products to China, boosting stock value while personally buying millions in shares, creat

The race to power artificial intelligence is no longer only about software. It is increasingly a battle over chips, data centers and the hardware needed to train and run advanced AI models. Nvidia remains the dominant name in AI computing, but AMD is pushing harder into the market with new data center accelerators. The competition is also creating space for newer players such as Cerebras Systems, which has drawn attention after its market debut as an AI chip company.

Cerebras Systems became one of the most searched AI stock names after the Sunnyvale, California-based AI chipmaker began trading on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol CBRS on Thursday, May 14, 2026. The company priced its initial public offering at $185 per share, sold 30 million Class A shares, and raised about $5.55 billion. Fresh Trading Update — Thursday, May 14, 2026: Cerebra

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang joined President Donald Trump’s China trip on Wednesday, May 13, 2026, as AI chip exports and market access moved to the center of U.S.-China talks. His presence matters because Nvidia’s powerful GPUs sit at the heart of AI development, while U.S. export controls have limited high-end chip sales to China. Why Huang’s Role Matters Huang was added after earlier indications he was not in the U.S. business delegation,

Intel Corp. is reportedly in preliminary talks with Apple Inc. over a potential investment, according to Bloomberg. The chipmaker, which has struggled in recent years against rivals AMD and Nvidia, is seeking new partnerships to strengthen its global position. While the discussions are still in early stages and no agreement is confirmed, the possibility of Apple joining Intel’s revival plan has already stirred investor interest.

Nvidia and AMD have agreed to provide the United States government with 15% of their revenue from specific chip sales to China as part of an unusual export license arrangement. The decision comes after earlier restrictions halted the sale of advanced semiconductors to China due to national security concerns. The administration stopped exports of certain high-performance chips in April, citing risks related to their potential use in military and artificial intelligence applications

Nvidia has reached an unprecedented milestone by becoming the first publicly traded company in history to surpass a $4 trillion market valuation. This historic achievement, reached on Wednesday, showcases the company’s rapid ascent in the global technology landscape, driven largely by the surging demand for its artificial intelligence-focused chips. Shares of Nvidia rose by 2.5% in early trading on Wednesday, climbing by $3.97 to exceed $164 per share. This marks a staggerin

In a historic move for the US tech sector, Texas Instruments (TI) has announced a massive investment of over $60 billion to boost domestic semiconductor manufacturing. This investment, set to roll out across seven fabrication plants in Texas and Utah, marks the largest such commitment in foundational chipmaking on American soil. The company expects the expansion to generate over 60,000 jobs and strengthen the country’s ability to produce critical compone

Nvidia has once again claimed the title of the world’s most valuable company, overtaking tech giant Microsoft, as surging demand for artificial intelligence (AI) chips continues to push its market value to new heights. On Tuesday, Nvidia’s shares climbed by 3.4%, boosting its market capitalization to approximately $3.45 trillion slightly ahead of Microsoft’s $3.44 trillion. This isn’t Nvidia&r

The recent developments in the semiconductor industry highlight a complex and evolving battle over technological supremacy, led prominently by the United States and China. When Huawei launched its Mate 60 Pro smartphone equipped with an advanced 7-nanometer chip despite stringent US export restrictions, it sent shockwaves through the global tech community. This event underscored that innovation can persist even in the face of severe sanctions. The US responded swiftly by tightening export contro

In a bold and sweeping move that signals a major shift in strategy, Intel Corporation is reportedly planning to lay off 20 percent of its global workforce. The decision, expected to be formally announced this week, marks the first significant restructuring initiative under newly appointed CEO Lip-Bu Tan, who took charge in March this year. The news, reported by Bloomberg, indicates a new era for the once-dominant chipmaker as it seeks to reclaim its position in a rapidly changing semiconducto

Nvidia, the crown jewel of Wall Street's artificial intelligence boom, suffered a staggering market loss this week, shedding nearly 7% of its value — over $148 billion in market capitalization — following the U.S. government's renewed crackdown on advanced chip exports to China. The dramatic sell-off marks one of the most severe single-day hits for the tech giant and signals growing fragility in the semiconductor sector amid intensifying geopolitical tensions. The immediat

India is positioning itself to become a global player in the rapidly expanding fields of artificial intelligence (AI) and chip manufacturing. Experts believe the country’s entry into the AI space, akin to the emergence of China’s DeepSeek, will be driven by strategic public-private partnerships within the next 4-5 years. Kunal Bahl, co-founder of Titan Capital and a prominent entrepreneur, emphasized this potential growth in a conversation about India&

Elon Musk has announced that Neuralink, his brain-interface startup, will implant its revolutionary Blindsight chip into a human subject by the end of 2025. The announcement came during a Town Hall event in Wisconsin, where Musk provided updates on the company’s advancements in neurotechnology. “We’re hoping, later this year, to have the first device implant for humans, enabling someone who is completely blind to see,” Musk said. Last year, Neuralink received US FDA ap

Google is set to collaborate with Taiwan's MediaTek to develop the next generation of its Tensor Processing Units (TPUs), which are expected to launch next year. This strategic move signifies a shift in Google’s approach to AI chip development, although the tech giant will continue working with its current chip partner, Broadcom. According to a report by The Information, Google’s partnership with MediaTek is largely driven by cost efficiency and MediaTek’s stron

In a significant leadership change, Intel Corporation has appointed Lip-Bu Tan as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective March 18, 2025. This move comes after Intel ousted its former CEO Pat Gelsinger following concerns about his ambitious turnaround strategy, which struggled to gain investor confidence. Tan, a seasoned semiconductor industry veteran and a former Intel board member, has a rich background in the tech industry. His appointment reflects Intel's commitment to retaining it

In December 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an updated warning regarding a voluntary recall of Lay’s Classic Potato Chips due to the presence of undeclared milk. Frito-Lay, the maker of the popular chips, identified a batch of 13 oz bags that may contain milk as an ingredient, which was not disclosed on the packaging. The affected bags, which were sold in Oregon and Washington, carry an expiration date of February 11, 2025. The issue was first raised by a consum
