Nvidia reiterated today they can't start making 15% payments on chips to China until Trumps admin codifies the 15% deal. The reason is, as Nvidia spells out, it would be taking a huge LEGAL RISK, to just start paying the money to the admin without it being in writing. Their point is blatant, it's a bribe, and it's against federal law for companies to pay bribes to ship products. So unless POTUS puts in writing they are allowed to pay this bribe, they will just start shipping without paying it
