- Reports indicate NVIDIA has sharply reduced its approved Asian AI customer list to prevent illegal re-exports to China.
- The enforcement move has heightened regulatory and demand uncertainty for high-end chips and broader digital-assets infrastructure.
- The sell-off is particularly impactful given the fund's heavy concentration in the information technology sector.
