Most of the Asian countries however don't buy this Chinese stance. India, Vietnam, Japan, Korea are heavily against Chinese stance. This is the reason why friends are important. China has made few friends in the world including in Asia, so the pan-Asianist appeals don't find any audience in...

When did I laugh at YMTC? Please provide links. My attitude is usually to wait and watch. Also, chinese semiconductor equipment companies are quite far behind American companies. Just wait a minute. I will provide you with past claims. Really? You really don't want to be a super power and...

Yeah but without fabs where will they fabricate it? It seems America is looking to ban even foreign companies from dealing with Huawei.

I disagree but lets assume what you say is right. Then the US has a kill switch over any company because it can simply stop fab access to the company. No fab can work without access to American semiconductor equipment from firms like Applied Materials and KLA Tencor.

Lol that is the most stupid strategy. If you want to force the other side to change its ways, you need to apply pressure. China has just capitulated here in this way. So boycott! I don't see any real action on this front. Chinese government hasn't even taken a tenth of the actions the...

The coming time is gonna be really challenging for Huawei. I just read that America will even force foreign companies to severe their ties with Huawei. That will be really tough. Huawei can still survive a ban from American components directly. But Huawei is not going to survive a cut off from...

That is not correct. Companies are barred from saying stuff that they know is false. You can't say clearly false stuff that you know is false. However, you can make your own projections for your technology which may or may not meet. In fact all companies, the first thing they mention before...

Dumping all treasury bill won't lead to any hyperinflation or financial crisis. You hold less than 10% of all treasury bills. Maybe around 5%. You really think dumping 5% will lead to anything? Also, treasury yields in fact has gone down in the recent months which means that there is healthy...

Oh no! SMIC has announced multiple times many things that they will do, which ended up being left undone. You can go back in this very thread to find them. Neither Taiwan nor South Korea are vying for superpower status, are they? They are allies with US and other Western Countries and as such...

Well this isn't true. I remember SMIC announced earlier that it will have 14 nm by 2017 or so, but that was not the case. China doesn't achieve everything that it announces or plans. Also, as for node technology is concerned, TSMC and Samsung are enough. For such high tech stuff in almost any...

Please think logically. US has also carefully considered the list of item for tariffs. Yes, the US consumer pays the tariffs, but this makes Chinese items less appealing to them due to raised cost, which leads to loss of orders for Chinese firms and companies and shift of manufacturing and...

Dude. Right now China is barely responding to tariffs. In response to American tariffs on 200 bn USD, China responded with tariffs on 60 bn USD. Why is China not touching American companies in China? Companies like GM, Ford, Tesla should be relatively easy.

Well, there are far more questions over Chinese economic data than there is about Indian economic data. So perhaps you should count that too.

Apparently you can't see what is clear. This kind of blindness doesn't help China, but in fact is detrimental to China in the long run. Blind people commit disasters and blunders. US just imposed additional tariffs on 200 bn USD of imports. There has been no Chinese response. Nada.

I have been hearing news of SMIC's 7 nm process for many many years. It is actual results that matter not words. That is why I am more interested in first knowing how their 14 nm process is coming up.

The fact is not about the place, but about the decision to continue the talk. Talks initially happened when Trump agreed to postpone further tariff increase, but right now US is threatening more tariffs and China is still continuing the talk despite this, and despite the fact that China took...

What retaliation? Just to start talks, China went back on its older retaliatory steps. And despite the US humiliating China, Chinese officials will still travel to US for further talks. There has been total Chinese capitulation in front of the US when it comes to trade negotiations.

Did they start mass production of their 16 nm FinFET?

Umm.. We are talking here about per capita figures. The absolute size of the population doesn't matter. In fact with the large size of the population, only larger schemes will be required. Exactly. Again, no. We are talking here about per capita measures. Absolute size DOESN'T matter...

Pretty much every evidence indicates that it is China that is in desperation. Firstly, China didn't even impose equal sanctions when US imposed tariffs worth 200 Billion USD of imports. Then just to agree to talks, China took back even the actions that it took on agriculture, and car imports...
