NVIDIA (NVDA) News Today — Nov. 7, 2025: U.S. Blocks Scaled‑Down AI Chip Sales to China; Jensen Huang Says No Plans to Ship Blackwell; Stock Extends Weekly Slide

  • Policy shock: The White House has told agencies it will not permit Nvidia to sell a scaled‑down “B30A” AI accelerator to China, per The Information, a move that intensifies U.S. export controls beyond prior restrictions. Nvidia said it has “zero share” in China’s datacenter compute market and excludes it from guidance. [1]
  • CEO stance: Speaking in Taiwan, CEO Jensen Huang said there are “no active discussions” to sell Blackwell to China and that the company is “not planning to ship anything to China” now. He added that U.S. policy allows the H20 in China, but demand and policy inside China leave Nvidia with effectively no share. [2]
  • Market reaction:NVDA traded at $188.08 as of 14:29 UTC, down ~3.7% from Thursday’s close, and is on pace for one of its toughest weeks of 2025 as broader AI shares sag. FT and WSJ tally a $350B–$440B weekly market‑cap drawdown. [3]

What’s new today (Nov. 7)

U.S. to block B30A sales to China
The White House has informed federal agencies that Nvidia’s “B30A” — a reduced‑performance AI chip intended to meet prior export rules — should not be sold to China. While the B30A can be clustered to train LLMs, Nvidia is now redesigning it in hopes of satisfying regulators. Separately, Beijing has directed state‑funded data centers to use only domestic chips and to strip out foreign silicon if projects are under 30% complete — a one‑two punch that sharply limits Nvidia’s near‑term China prospects. [4]

Huang: ‘Not planning to ship anything to China’
During a stop in Tainan en route to TSMC events, Huang reiterated that Blackwell shipments to China are off the table and clarified that he never said China would “win” the AI race; instead, he noted China’s large base of AI researchers and urged the U.S. to “run fast.” He also said business remains “very strong” globally, even as China remains effectively closed to Nvidia’s most advanced parts. [5]


Why this matters

Revenue mix & guidance
Nvidia has told investors it has no measurable datacenter compute share in China, and today’s developments reinforce that stance. The incremental risk is less about current revenue (already de‑emphasized) and more about optionality foregone if controls remain or harden. [6]

Global build‑out offsets China headwinds
Earlier this week in Berlin, Deutsche Telekom and Nvidia unveiled a €1B “Industrial AI Cloud”, slated to go live in early 2026, highlighting ongoing Europe‑led capacity additions for industrial digital twins, robotics and sovereign AI. That announcement underscores where Nvidia is still accelerating outside China. [7]

Market context
AI bellwethers have been under pressure this week. The Financial Times notes tech stocks are heading for their worst week since April, with Nvidia contributing the largest dollar decline; WSJ live coverage similarly tracks a sharp NVDA drawdown since Monday. Today’s export‑control headlines add another layer to the risk narrative. [8]


By the numbers (intraday)

  • NVDA price: $188.08 (14:29 UTC), ~–3.7% vs. prior close of 195.21 (calculation shown). Weekly loss remains heavy amid AI‑sector selling.
  • Upcoming catalyst:Q3 FY26 results on Nov. 19, 2025 (2:00 p.m. PT) — guidance and commentary on export rules, Blackwell ramps and hyperscale demand will be focal. [9]

What to watch next

  1. Re‑spin of B30A (or successor): Nvidia is attempting design tweaks to satisfy Washington; whether those changes win approval — and whether China’s own rules leave room for imports — will determine if any near‑term China revenue re‑emerges. [10]
  2. Blackwell deployments ex‑China: Hyperscale rollouts and sovereign AI projects (EU, Korea, etc.) remain the key growth lever to counter China exposure. [11]
  3. Management tone on Nov. 19: Look for commentary on supply, lead times, and mix (training vs. inference), plus any quantum‑hybrid road‑map updates that have been in focus recently. (Context: recent Nvidia announcements around CUDA‑Q/NVQLink have amplified hybrid‑quantum interest industry‑wide.) [12]

Bottom line

Today’s headlines cement the near‑term “China off‑limits” reality for Nvidia — by policy in Washington and by procurement rules in Beijing — even as the company leans harder into non‑China demand and sovereign AI programs. With earnings less than two weeks away, investors will parse whether ex‑China growth continues to outrun policy friction.

The Innovator IBD 50 ETF slid, and earnings-driven moves dominated: Take-Two tumbled nearly 9% on GTA VI delay; Expedia jumped ~17% on solid results. Traders awaited policy signals and earnings to gauge the AI cycle.

  • AI Stocks Slide as $1 Trillion Market Value Vanishes This Week

The pullback followed Palantir's earnings and caution from top CEOs about a market pullback.
