US HOLDS OFF BLACKLISTING DEEPSEEK, 100+ CHINESE FIRMS DESPITE NATIONAL SECURITY CONCERNS: REUTERS

Why it matters: Holding off on blacklisting DeepSeek and 100+ Chinese firms is a de-escalation of export/entity-list pressure that marginally relieves China-tech and removes a near-term overhang on US semis' China exposure, but it is a policy non-action with no capability release or supply change, so the tradable read is modest.

At publish time: Headline flags a specific policy restraint (US declining to sanction named Chinese AI/tech firms including DeepSeek), a China-tech regulatory read, though it is a non-action rather than a capability or supply catalyst.

China-tech/DeepSeek momentum held as predicted, but NVDA China exposure worsened via accelerating domestic-silicon substitution (46% of budgets); small policy non-action, modest net read.
