Chip Industry Grapples with New U.S. Curbs on China Sales

Companies around the world on Friday began to wrestle with the impact of wideranging U.S. curbs on selling chips and chip manufacturing equipment to China.

(Reuters) -Companies around the world on Friday began to wrestle with the impact of wide-ranging U.S. curbs on selling chips and chip manufacturing equipment to China.

South Korean memory chip maker SK Hynix Inc said on Friday it would seek a license under new U.S. export control rules for equipment to keep operating its factories in China.

American officials on Friday published a sweeping set of rules that restrict the export of some U.S.-made semiconductor manufacturing equipment to China, but provided exemptions for companies from the United States and its allies to seek a license.

"SK Hynix is ready to make its utmost efforts to get the U.S. government's license and will closely work with the Korean government for this," the company said in a statement. "We're also ready to operate our fabrication plants in China smoothly, while complying with the international order."

Meta-owned photo sharing platform Instagram is bringing a feature that will allow users to make purchases by just chatting with businesses on Instagram.
