Not sure if this is true or not. However, you will find a Chinese in almost every graduate program in the US. They have been ripping off our intellectual property for 40-50 years. Many graduate departments need Chinese students to justify their existence. Chinese "students" do very little to enhance the educational experience of others. If you have ever had a class with a Chinese instructor you will appreciate this. They only exist to take what we have and advance their own.
Don't be racist. Also, RIP supermicro. This is gigantic news, I don't even know why I didn't exit all my positions
Don't ignore facts. Read 'The Art of War' by Sun Tzu. "Spies are the Sovereign's most important expenditure." "Attack where your enemy cannot defend". "The acme of the General's strategy is to defeat your enemy without battle." Do any of his main strategy themes seem plausibly relevant especially after all our manufacturing and higher end employment opps for our kids have already managed to turn up in their hands? Do we really need a regression channel to identify that the trend is going against us here? Financial system disruption? Data loss or corruption of intellectual property in cloud storage companies? Peanuts. How many US power companies have these boards in their network cores, their SCADA systems, etc? Pipeline companies, telecom mega-nets, other critical infrastructure??? This is not a SuperMicro trade story at all.
Looks like there is collateral damage. Lenovo is down 20% in HK this morning, noticed it @-22 a few mns ago. Found no news so far.
Technologically, it is an impossible feat unless China is 100 years ahead of the world. Why would China do something like that if they are 100 years ahead of the curve?
