Nvidia (NVDA.O) plans to invest hundreds of billions of dollars in U.S.-made chips and electronics over the next four years, CEO Jensen Huang told the Financial Times. The company expects to spend around $500 billion on electronics during this period, with a substantial portion allocated to domestic manufacturing.
Huang emphasized that the U.S. AI industry could expand more rapidly with support from government policies. His comments come as Nvidia seeks to address investor concerns about demand for its high-cost AI chips, especially following the emergence of China’s DeepSeek chatbot as a potential competitor.
While Nvidia declined to comment on the FT report, Huang stated that the company can now manufacture its latest systems in the U.S. through key suppliers like Taiwanese chipmakers TSMC (2330.TW) and Foxconn (2317.TW). He also noted an increasing competitive threat from China’s Huawei.
Huang highlighted that TSMC’s U.S. investments significantly strengthen Nvidia’s supply chain resilience. Earlier, at Nvidia’s developer conference in California, he told analysts that orders for 3.6 million Blackwell AI chips from four major cloud firms likely underestimate actual demand, as they do not account for customers such as Meta Platforms (META.O), smaller cloud providers, and startups.
