China's semiconductor exports jumped 136% year-on-year to US$45 billion in September, outpacing the growth rate recorded over the first nine months of the year. The South China Morning Post attributes the surge largely to the AI boom driving up memory and chip prices, alongside strong global demand. The figures underscore how Chinese chipmakers and exporters are capitalising on tight supply despite ongoing US export controls targeting advanced semiconductors.
Why now: The scale of the export jump amid the AI-driven chip price surge and US-China tech tensions makes it striking news.
