AI Stock Frenzy: July 2025’s Biggest Earnings Surprises, Deals, and Market Shake-Ups

Nvidia (NVDA) became the world’s most valuable semiconductor firm and rose about 4% after the U.S. reversed the export ban on advanced AI chips to China, with Nvidia applying for licenses to resume selling its H20 GPUs and noting the April ban could cost up to $15 billion in revenue. The Nvidia H20 GPU is a slightly curbed version of the flagship AI processor but remains compatible with Nvidia’s standard AI software tools even when peak performance is dialed down. Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) surged as much as 7% on the export relief, with the Commerce Department set to review

Chiplet Technology 2025: Design Tools, Yield Challenges, and Market Adoption

Chiplet Technology 2025: Design Tools, Yield Challenges, and Market Adoption

Chiplet architecture splits monolithic chips into multiple dies in a single package, improving wafer yields and reducing cost, with AMD reporting up to 70% cost reduction in EPYC servers versus a comparable single-die design. Chiplets enable mixing of process nodes, for example high-density cores on 5 nm while I/O dies run on 16 nm, maximizing performance-per-cost. Chiplet designs decouple innovation paths, allowing CPU cores and memory/I/O to advance on separate timelines. The Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express (UCIe) defines a universal die-to-die interface with data rates from 8 to 32 GT/s, and UCIe 1.0 launched in 2022. 2.5D/3D packaging approaches such
