We recently published a list of 12 AI Stocks Making Waves on Wall Street Today. In this article, we are going to take a look at where MongoDB, Inc. (NASDAQ:MDB) stands against other AI stocks that are making waves on Wall Street today.
The United States recently issued guidance threatening companies not to use advanced computer chips from China, including Huawei’s Ascend AI chips. However, China has now urged the country to “immediately correct its wrongdoings” and stop “discriminatory” measures against it.
A spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Commerce has said that the United States has abused its export control measures. He said that the country has imposed stricter restrictions on Chinese chip products based on unfounded allegations, further explaining how the said restrictions contain discriminatory measures and tend to distort the market.
The U.S. Commerce Department had issued the guidance last week, with its Bureau of Industry and Security stating that “these chips were likely developed or produced in violation of U.S. export controls.”
“The U.S. has been abusing export control measures, imposing stricter restrictions on Chinese chip products under unfounded accusations… China firmly opposes this… Trying to trip others won’t make oneself run faster.”
-The Chinese Ministry
Opposing the unilateral bullying from the US’s end, the Chinese spokesperson said that the restrictions have infringed upon the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies. The country has been accused of undermining the preliminary trade agreement reached in Geneva, Switzerland.
The spokesperson further urged the country to work with China to jointly safeguard the consensus concluded in the Geneva talks.
“If the United States continues to cause China substantive harm, China will take resolute measures to safeguard its legitimate rights and interests.”
