Minimal impact since there hasn't been much sales going on in Data Center for China since 2023. Go in big on the dip.

a move that was seen as retaliatory for a series of curbs by Washington aimed at impeding tech progress by China's semiconductor industry.Since then, both NVIDIA and Intel chips have similarly fielded accusations from Chinese authorities and an industry group of posing security risks, though there has not been any regulatory action.LENOVO TO REMAIN A CUSTOMERMicron will continue to sell to two Chinese customers that have significant data centre operations outside China, one of which is laptop maker Lenovo 0992.HK, the people said.The U.S. company, which made $3.4 billion or 12% of its total revenue from mainland China in its last business year, will also continue to sell chips to auto and mobile phone sector customers in the world's second-largest economy, one person said.Asked about the exit from its China data centre business, Micron said in a statement to Reuters that the division had been impacted by the ban, and it abides by applicable regulations where it does business.Lenovo did not immediately respond to a request for comment.U.S.-Sino trade tensions and tech rivalry have only escalated since 2018, when U.S. President Donald Trump began imposing tariffs on Chinese goods during his first term.

China, which is more reliant on imported tech, has taken far fewer regulatory actions.LOSING OUT ON CHINA'S AI BOOMThe ban on Micron products in critical infrastructure by China - the world's second-largest market for server memory - has meant the company has missed out on the country's data centre expansion boom.That's benefited rivals Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, as well as Chinese companies YMTC and CXMT, which have been aggressively expanding with the support of the Chinese government.Investment by data centres used in computing in China surged ninefold to 24.7 billion yuan ($3.4 billion) last year, according to a Reuters review of government procurement documents.That said, Micron's challenges in China have been offset by huge demand for data centres and related tools elsewhere, thanks to the global adoption of artificial intelligence.
