Nvidia to ship new AI chip for China next quarter, modified Blackwell later
asia.nikkei.com: [Excerpt] Nvidia to ship new AI chip for China next quarter, modified Blackwell later. Company says US restrictions 'shield' Huawei from competition in key market.
PALO ALTO, California/TAIPEI/HONG KONG - Nvidia will start shipping a modified chip for artificial intelligence applications to customers in China in coming months, its latest effort to stay in the Chinese market as Huawei steps up its own Al chip offerings and the U.S. tightens export restrictions, Nikkei Asia has learned.

Malaysia is now dominating the Nvidia chip flow into Asia, and March has officially taken the crown as the biggest month ever for shipments to the country
@kakashiii111 : Nvidia Chip Shipments to Malaysia Skyrocket to Record Highs Despite U.S. Warnings — March 2025 Update.
On March 23, 2025, the Financial Times reported that U.S. officials asked Malaysia to monitor every shipment entering the country when it involves Nvidia chips. "[The U.S. is] asking us to make sure that we monitor every shipment that comes to Malaysia when it involves Nvidia chips", Malaysian Trade Minister Zafrul Aziz said.
But did Malaysia really start the monitor and crackdown? Let's assume U.S. officials approached Malaysian officials about a week before the FT published the report—which means Malaysia had half a month to start monitoring. That’s plenty of time to change the picture of the flows. I assume.
But if the data is any clue, they didn’t just ignore the officials—they hit the turbo button. March saw the highest flow of Nvidia chips ever recorded. Before we dive into the numbers, let’s roll out a short introduction.
Malaysia: A business-friendly haven for both Singapore and China, and for a few other countries less friendly to the U.S. It’s become the perfect intermediary for activities or goods you wouldn’t want authorities tracing back to their final destination—a bit of misdirection, if you will.
Now, when did Malaysia start receiving a lot of Nvidia shipments? If you look at the official data, things start to get interesting in November 2023—just when the second wave of GPU export restrictions kicked in. But since 2025, the picture has completely changed. The reveal of DeepSeek R1 shocked the world and forced U.S. officials—and Singaporeans—to examine the Singapore billing/shipping tunnels used by Nvidia and its partners.
So what did they do when the Singapore tunnel was about to close? Yep, you guessed right—boost Malaysia’s role in this routing.
Malaysia is now dominating the Nvidia chip flow into Asia, and March has officially taken the crown as the biggest month ever for shipments to the country.
Let’s talk numbers:
2022: $817 million
2023: $1.276 billion
2024: $4.877 billion — an increase of almost 300% YoY
2025:
January: $1.12 billion (!) — nearly 700% year-over-year increase (!) * February: $626.5 million
March: a record-breaking $1.96 billion (!) — an astonishing 3,433% increase from 2023 to 2025 (!)
Total GPU flow from Taiwan to Malaysia in Q1 2025? $3.71 billion. If we take Nvidia’s estimated total revenue for Q1, Malaysia’s shipments alone make up almost 10% of the company’s estimated revenue in Q1 (!).
The unusual spike in chip flow to Malaysia could be the result of a few things: rushing to ship before U.S. tariffs hit, the crackdown of the Singapore tunnel, China stockpiling Blackwell GPUs before getting cut off—and so on.
But it all points to one simple conclusion: Malaysian officials didn’t really listen to U.S. officials, and maybe—just maybe—the BIS should take a second look at this route.

GTC keynote: Conclusions
@wallstengine: HERE'S WHAT ANALYSTS HAVE TO SAY AFTER $NVDA'S GTC KEYNOTE 2025
Citi (Buy, PT: $163)
"Jensen Huang (CEO of NVIDIA) delivered the GTC keynote today. Three key points jumped out to us: 1) NVIDIA is adding more color to its TAM expectations with total annual capex reaching $1T by 2028 as both inference and training continue to require more compute. 2) Blackwell is not only back on track, it is outperforming expectations with units (individual dies) from top 4 US hyperscalers already reaching 3.6M in 2025, 2.8x vs. Hopper’s peak year. 3) The company reminded investors that it is leading inference and is not stepping its foot off the gas with a blisteringly fast compute roadmap (B300, Rubin, Rubin Ultra), software leadership (e.g. Dynamo), and networking innovation (CPO). Net-net, we came out of the keynote reassured in NVIDIA’s leadership which, if anything, seems to be expanding. We view positively NVIDIA’s push for inference, which per company comments now requires significantly more compute. Maintain Buy."
Morgan Stanley
"Our preliminary conclusions are positive. We aren't sure what's going to shift the market from taking a glass-half-empty view of this situation, but the demand picture will stay strong through the visibility window. The concerns we hear that ASICs are causing competitive and margin pressure are going to vanish fairly quickly when they materially outgrow ASIC competition in 2H, as gross margins return to the mid-70s. The stock trades at a P/E discount to direct peers. We expect the company to have a very confident tone in the Q&A in the morning, in contrast to the somewhat more restrained management view at CES when there were supply chain and Hopper challenges. The risk, of course, is government export controls, which appear likely. However, we remain optimistic that the limitations will be mostly China-specific and that requiring licenses in so-called 'tier 2 countries' will be limited. We remain OW, stock remains our top pick in semis."
BofA (Buy, PT: $200)
"We maintain Buy, $200 PO following a slate of product/partner announcements at the flagship GTC conference in addition to a post-keynote meeting with the CFO that demonstrated NVDA continuing to deepen its competitive moat in a $1T+ infrastructure/services TAM. We were excited by: 1) Structural uplift in demand in part fueled by over 100x greater compute intensity for inference evidenced by 1.8M Blackwell packages (each package = 2 GPUs) shipped/ordered to date vs. 1.3M Hopper units total in 2024 across top 4 CSPs. 2) New Blackwell Ultra, Rubin, and Rubin Ultra silicon/server/system platforms pointing to an unmatched roadmap as Rubin advances AI performance 900x (scale-up FLOPs) over Hopper (Blackwell is 68x) in a TCO-optimized way. 3) New CPO-based Spectrum-X and Quantum-X switches bolster networking edge and advance scale-out to +1M GPU clusters. 4) Physical AI TAM expansion progress with key announcements in robotics and AVs. 5) CFO discussions suggested confidence in GM recovery to mid-70% in 2H as Blackwell ramps. Overall, NVDA continues to dominate the AI value chain with its full-stack turnkey (hardware, software, systems, services, developers) model."
KeyBanc (Overweight, PT: $190)
"Today, NVDA CEO Jensen Huang kicked off GTC with a keynote speech with announcements largely in line with expectations heading into the event. Key takeaways: 1) Announced Blackwell Ultra (GB300) NVL72, which is expected to be 1.5x performance of GB200 NVL72 and is expected to be available in 2H25. 2) Announced Vera Rubin NVL144, with Vera being the next-gen ARM-based CPU and Rubin being the next-generation GPU, with 144 GPUs per rack and performance expected to be 3.3x GB300 NVL72 and expected 2H26. 3) Announced Co-packaged Optical (CPO) at 1.6TB, expected to ship in 2H25. NVDA continues to push the envelope on performance with its annual cadence roadmap, such that it remains the clear leader in AI. Maintain Overweight."
Stifel (Buy, PT: $180)
"The GTC Keynote featured updates on next-gen Blackwell Ultra, Rubin, and Rubin Ultra architectures. The Keynote also featured the launch of Dynamo – NVDA's inferencing software designed for the optimization of reasoning models within data centers, which was described as the operating system for AI Factories. As was widely expected, Mr. Huang also touched on scale-out networking with the formal announcement of silicon photonics/co-packaged optics Quantum-X and Spectrum-X switches. On the enterprise infrastructure front, NVDA announced the DGX Spark and DGX Station PCs, offering AI capabilities and performance in a desktop form factor. Continued full-stack infrastructure development is targeted at evolving reasoning models and agentic AI, which NVDA believes will drive 10-100x compute intensity."
Wells Fargo (Overweight, PT: $185)
"While much of what was announced had been somewhat anticipated, we think NVIDIA's continued full stack/platform innovation was once again showcased; NVDA is solidly in a league of its own. NVDA's scale-up capabilities with networking innovations (co-packed optics/SiPho; NVLink evolution)—enabling racks of 576 GPUs per rack—is a key/significant competitive advantage that could drive incremental improvements in perf/tokens/$, broadening end-market applications."
Cantor Fitzgerald (Neutral, PT: $200)
"It’s tough not to be impressed. The excitement at GTC is palpable, and advancements being made in AI are truly amazing. The absolute key focus was on the extreme computing needed for inference at scale and the work NVDA is doing to enable the proliferation of greater intelligence (i.e., reasoning) across applications/verticals. At the crux of everything here is NVDA’s work in combining its best-in-class hardware with software initiatives, such as the newly announced Dynamo software stack that acts as the OS for AI factories, and when combined with Blackwell offers ~40x inference improvement vs. the prior-generation Hopper."
Raymond James (Strong Buy, PT: $170)
"During the keynote, NVDA’s CEO sounded highly confident about data center capex growth sustaining (to exceed $1T by 2028), and highlighted the company’s opportunities in Inferencing, Agentic AI, and Robotics. Blackwell demand remains strong, driven by top 4 CSPs. Blackwell Ultra is on track for 2H25 shipments and management sees a smooth transition. Vera Rubin NVL144 is on track for 2H26 and Rubin Ultra NVL576 for 2H27, with performance specs that would be hard to match, in our view. Overall, we walked away comfortable with long-term AI demand and continue to be impressed with NVDA’s roadmap & technology innovation. Reiterate Strong Buy."
Bernstein SocGen Group (Outperform, PT: $185)
"Nothing hugely surprised given all the pre-event speculation, but we still thought it sounded good. The roadmap looks really solid, and their capability gap vs competitors across their entire massive stack continues to widen. And the company still seems positive on datacenter growth, calling for $1T+ in datacenter capex by 2028 while capturing an increasing share of it. It is still NVIDIA’s game to lose, and they don’t appear to be losing..."
Deutsche Bank (Hold, PT: $145)
"NVDA remains highly bullish about the future of AI compute spend, with its expectations for inference-related compute needs having 100x'd since last year's GTC. NVDA sees a continued need for AI compute solutions to 'scale-up', and introduced several technological innovations which should drive this trend forward (sophisticated GPU roadmap, disaggregated NVLink switches, NVDA 'Dynamo' OS for AI factories, co-packaged silicon photonics options, etc.)."
UBS
"The first thing that hit us is the sheer volume of people competing to get into each panel at this event - it is, in our experience, extraordinary. NVDA's edge AI panel highlighted the sheer breadth of its offerings spanning service provider, enterprise, industrial, embedded, and physical AI. Investors have lately often said 'nobody makes much money yet from AI' but IBM's panel on ROI of accelerated computing showcased $3.5 billion in annual savings exiting C2024 via improved productivity."

Before the full jump to optical
@ChipsandWafers: With rumors circulating that $NVDA will not adopt CPO in earnest for #AI until '27, Active Electric Cables (AEC) are being considered as a replacement for passive copper wires before the full jump to optical. Most people know $MRVL does AEC, but the real pure play here is $CRDO.

Cheap enough or can still get cheaper?
@DavidInglesTV: $NVDA now trading at 23x, lowest multiple in 6 years and a full standard deviation below the 10-year mean. Cheap enough or can still get cheaper?

How They Make Money: NVIDIA: The Age of AI. How long can the boom last?
@The_AI_Investor: Interesting that NVIDIA had been repurchasing shares in the ~$140 range until January 26, 2025. Then, following the Deepseek selloff on January 27: "From January 27, 2025 through February 21, 2025, we repurchased 29 million shares for $3.7 billion pursuant to a pre-established trading plan." Jensen was like, “WTF, I’m buying my shares back.” As Nvidia shareholders, we can be sure even Jensen enjoys “buying the dips.” :
@kakashiii111: After some concerns were raised by certain individuals regarding Singapore's revenue, NVIDIA added a disclaimer for the first time in its Q1 2024 10-Q filing. The disclaimer stated that Singapore is essentially a billing location, and the actual goods were shipped to other countries. Naturally, these concerns have continued to be raised by me and others, and eventually, the "DeepSeek moment" occurred, forcing the officials to investigate these revenues. Since then, everyone has been asking about the Singapore revenue.
As a result, PwC, in a stroke of "brilliance" with Nvidia, came up with a creative solution. In this 10-K, they decided to create their own definition for the SEC’s Regulation S-K and U.S. GAAP requirements regarding revenue associated with geographic areas.
Instead of showing revenue from foreign customers or countries that constitute a significant part of their materials—like every other public company is required to do—they decided to fulfill this requirement by renaming the section from "Revenue" to "Geographic Revenue Based Upon Customer Billing Location." (!)
Now, how will investors know where the products are actually sold? How will investors understand which geographic locations are at risk due to regulations, wars, or other factors in different countries?
Investors will now have to guess where these customer billing locations are actually tied to and where the products are being shipped.
And if they can't guess correctly, don’t blame NVIDIA—it’s their fault for not knowing how to associate the customer billing location with the actual shipping destination.
It's just amazing

A probable profit-warning if the answer is affirmative: Did DeepSeek illegally buy Nvidia's chips?
@KobeissiLetter: Did DeepSeek illegally buy Nvidia's chips? Since DeepSeek was founded, Nvidia's sales to Singapore are up a WHOPPING +740%. The US is now PROBING if DeepSeek bought Nvidia's GPUs through third parties in Singapore. This will have MASSIVE implications. (a thread)
⚡️
@KobeissiLetter: On Monday morning, when the market collapsed on DeepSeek worries, Elon Musk commented on the situation. He says, DeepSeek “obviously” has ~50,000 Nvidia H100 chips that they can’t talk about due to US export controls. These chips cost over $30,000 EACH.
⚡️
@KobeissiLetter: Our team looked into Nvidia's financial statements and found this interesting line. Nvidia says "the end customer and shipping location may be different from our customer's billing location." They specifically note how shipments to Singapore end up in OTHER locations.
⚡️
@KobeissiLetter: Over the last 3 quarter, Nvidia has produced more revenue from sales to Singapore than China. A whopping $17.4 BILLION of revenue came from Singapore versus $11.6 billion from China. Between the 2 countries, sales are roughly ~32% of Nvidia's overall revenue.
⚡️
@KobeissiLetter: Nvidia's sales to Singapore surged a massive +185% year-over-year in their most recent quarter. The CAGR on revenue to Singapore since Q1 2021 has been +278%, more than DOUBLE the US CAGR of +133%. It's also more than 5 TIMES China's CAGR of +47%.
⚡️
@KobeissiLetter: It gets even crazier. Check out their Q2 2024 earnings results where Nvidia saw a "casual" +535.6% YoY increase in sales from companies "in Singapore." Again, the only criteria to be included as a sale to Singapore is to have a billing address in the country. Very strange.
⚡️
@KobeissiLetter: Naturally, the next though is that maybe Singapore is actually using these chips. Perhaps Singapore is becoming the next datacenter hub or an AI-friendly country. So, we decided to look into data centers by country and see if this supports the recent surge in revenue.
<>
@KobeissiLetter: Well, it gets even worse. While the US has 5,000+ data centers and China has nearly 500, Singapore doesn't even beat Poland. In fact, Singapore has a whopping *99* datacenters, not even enough to make the top 20 list. So, where are all of these GPUs going then?
⚡️
@KobeissiLetter: Note that China is currently importing more chips from Singapore than the United States. Not only have imports from Singapore surged in recent years, but the gap has widened. Keep in mind, this data likely understates imports from Singapore given a lot of data is not public.
⚡️
@KobeissiLetter: This begins a US investigation that will have huge implications on both innovation and markets. If the US decides to restrict sales to Singapore, 20% of Nvidia's revenue is at risk. Things are heating up. Follow us @KobeissiLetter for real time analysis as this develops.
