JPMorgan Kicks Off US Bank Bond Sales Ahead of Seasonal Slowdown

Bloomberg16-07-2025
JPMorgan Chase & Co. is tapping the US investment-grade bond market Wednesday, kicking off what's expected to be a relatively light season for bank bond sales ahead of expected changes to sector regulations.
The lender is marketing 11-year subordinated notes that are fixed-to-floating rate and that can't be called for 10 years, according to a person familiar with the matter. Initial price discussions call for a yield around 1.4 percentage points above similarly dated Treasuries, said the person, who was not authorized to speak publicly.

Nvidia's China Nightmare? H20 Chip Faces Backdoor Allegations in High-Stakes Trade Showdown

China's been turning up the heat on Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), and not in a good way. This week, the country's top internet watchdog summoned Nvidia reps over what it calls serious security risks tied to the H20 chipa product Nvidia designed specifically to meet U.S. export rules. State media pulled no punches either. In a commentary published Friday, the People's Daily warned of potential chip backdoors triggering a nightmare, saying it couldn't allow infected semiconductors into its digital infrastructure. Nvidia responded firmly: Cybersecurity is critically important to us, adding that its chips don't contain any remote access pathways. Still, in today's geopolitical climate, that reassurance may not be enough. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Signs with NVDA. Here's where things get messier. Just a few weeks ago, the U.S. agreed to lift restrictions on H20 sales to China as part of a broader deal involving rare-earth magnetsmaterials critical for everything from smartphones to fighter jets. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick had framed the H20 resumption as a meaningful breakthrough after bilateral talks in London, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the magnet issue was solved. But with Beijing now putting the H20 back under the microscope, it's unclear whether Nvidia has actually received the licenses it needs to ship the chips. And if China decides the H20 isn't up to pareither technically or politicallythose sales may stall before they even start. Meanwhile, CEO Jensen Huang has been walking a tightrope. Fresh off a high-profile visit to Beijing, Huang praised China's AI momentum and national champions like DeepSeek, all while pushing back on the idea that Nvidia would ever install surveillance backdoors into its products. He called the suggestion not only false, but bad business. Still, the reality is this: Nvidia's H20, already weaker than its flagship GPUs, now faces a political test that could matter more than its specs. Investors watching the tech standoff might want to pay close attention to what happens nextbecause this chip is turning into a geopolitical bargaining chip. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.
