Trump Casts China Tariff Net Wider -- And Catches U.S. Consumers
President Donald Trump is searching for more China-made goods to tax. As the U.S. president threatens tariffs on an additional $200 billion in Chinese imports, he may find it difficult to spare electronic goods, clothing and textiles that account for half of all Chinese exports to the U.S. Last week, Trump’s $50 billion hit list of made-in-China goods largely focused on high-technology industries such as robotics, aerospace and cars.

Why Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) Stock Hit New High Monday
Advanced Micro Devices AMD saw its stock price pop over 5% on Monday to hit a new 11-year high on the back of positive analyst sentiment, which also pointed directly to its ability to compete against chip giant Intel INTC. “Along with recent announcements of new server deals with Cisco CSCO/Tencent TCEHY and the crystallization of our 7nm AMD versus 10nm Intel thesis, we are increasingly confident in upside to AMD shares," analyst Matthew Ramsay wrote in a note to clients last Thursday. Ramsay believes that AMD’s transition to its brand new 7nm AMD Radeon Vega GPU products, which are set to launch at some point in 2018, will be hugely beneficial.

5 Chip Stocks At Risk In Expanding Trade War
Semiconductor manufacturers have enjoyed rapid sales growth and soaring stock prices, but the good times are threatened by the mounting trade war between the U.S. and China. In particular, most chips imported to the U.S. from China are actually designed by U.S.-based companies that outsource production there, or use Chinese firms for final assembly and testing, as reported by The Wall Street Journal. Tariffs on imports from China, as well as restrictions on transfers of technology to China, are likely to hit these U.S.-based semiconductor companies hard: Intel Corp. ( INTC), Qualcomm Inc. ( QCOM), Texas Instruments Inc. ( TXN), Applied Materials Inc. ( AMAT) and Lam Research Corp. ( LRCX).
