US launching Chinese semiconductor investigation

President Joe Biden’s administration is set to initiate a trade investigation into Chinese semiconductors in the coming days, as part of a push to reduce reliance on a technology that US officials believe pose national security risks.

The probe could result in tariffs or other measures to restrict imports on older-model semiconductors and the products containing them, including medical devices, cars, smartphones and weaponry, according to people familiar with the matter.
