New Trade Barriers Threaten China’s Surging Chip Exports

China’s chip exports were a standout in May, as growth was buoyed by strong overseas demand and a low comparison base, but experts warn that the outlook for further expansion remains uncertain due to new U.S. tariffs.

Integrated circuit exports jumped 28.5% in May in U.S. dollar terms from a year earlier to $12.6 billion, according to data released by the General Administration of Customs on Friday. Exports rose 21.2% to $62.6 billion in the first five months of the year.
