Nvidia Faces Antitrust Scrutiny: Preliminary Findings Released
China’s SAMR has launched an antitrust investigation into NVIDIA, focusing on potential violations of the Anti-Monopoly Law following its Mellanox acquisition. The probe examines whether NVIDIA is abusing its market dominance through unfair pricing and competitive practices. Penalties could include fines up to 10% of previous year’s sales, potentially higher for severe violations. NVIDIA maintains it wins on merit and cooperates with regulators. This highlights increasing regulatory scrutiny on tech companies in China and impacts NVIDIA’s strategy in a key market.
