Hahaha I was just theorizing this morning that they would jump to China with all the chaos happening over here. Gotta make the line go up.
Funny I was pondering the same thing. What would Trump do if Nvidia moved to somewhere outside US jurisdiction?
It's very serious for Nvidia to lose about 45% of their revenue. But they also need to keep their development teams running.
Can they do that if they move?

But this is really serious for Nvidia! As far as I can figure it's about $33 billion profits in a year they stand to lose!!!

Based on market cap and P/E.
Would they even need to move? Just create a China based subsidiary and sell them consultancy in the form of expert chip designers.
As long as they are headquartered in USA, the company is under American law, and USA can simply forbid them to expand to China.
They'd still be beholden to US sanctions.
Be a shame they've left a poorly configured VPN node that allowed someone from a Chinese IP dump unknown quantities of IP. Happens all the time. And oh look the Chinese subsidiary hired some really talented people that got a new chip design in a record time!
