According to a report released by ChannelGate, a public account under BoBanTang, starting from the fourth quarter of 2026, AMD's supply of gaming graphics cards for the Chinese market will decrease by approximately 20% to 50%, and the supply tightness may continue until January next year. The report states that the number of GPUs that AMD's authorized graphics card partners can obtain each month is also decreasing, with specific supply quantities being uncertain.The related news involves AMD's supply arrangements for gaming graphics cards in the Chinese region for the fourth quarter of 2026. Starting in October, the AMD chips available to relevant graphics card manufacturers have significantly contracted, and the specific number of chips they can obtain each month is unstable. Channel sources also indicate that the scarcity of AMD graphics cards may be approaching that of NVIDIA graphics cards, with some graphics card manufacturers receiving very limited quantities of gaming GPUs.Manufacturers such as ASUS, Sapphire, and ASRock need to obtain GPU chips, along with memory, circuit boards, and coolers to produce retail graphics cards. In addition to chip supply, there have been previous reports in the industry chain that AMD may adjust the supply prices to partners based on the costs of GPU chips and memory kits. The final retail price of graphics cards is also influenced by manufacturers' inventory, specific models, channel pricing, and market demand.

Reuters reported on November 12, citing three informed sources, that Chinese artificial intelligence companies are attempting to rent Nvidia chip computing power from overseas data centers, concerned that the controversy surrounding Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang may prompt Washington to tighten restrictions on the remote use of advanced processors. The United States has restricted the export of Nvidia's most advanced artificial intelligence chips to China, and Chinese companies can currently use such processors remotely by renting computing power from overseas data centers. A large Chinese cloud service provider has internally discussed whether to secure overseas Nvidia chip capacity, and some companies have contacted data center operators to negotiate reservations. The informed sources declined to be named due to the sensitivity of the matter and did not specify the cloud service provider.Two informed sources stated that smaller artificial intelligence labs are also considering similar arrangements, including reaching out to major computing power rental service providers in Southeast Asia. These companies are concerned that the controversy surrounding Jensen Huang may provide political momentum for the U.S. Remote Access Security Act (RASA). This bill aims to authorize the U.S. Department of Commerce to regulate remote and cloud access to restricted technologies. The U.S. House of Representatives passed the bill in January with a vote of 369 in favor and 22 against, and it is currently awaiting Senate review. Reuters stated that Nvidia's advanced processors are used to train and run the large models behind generative artificial intelligence products like chatbots, and restricting overseas cloud access will make it more difficult for Chinese developers to obtain high-end computing power without directly importing chips.Jensen Huang stated on Sunday that he was unfaithful to his wife. The New York Times reported that the individual involved is Alice Huang, a former executive of Singapore cloud computing company Megaspeed, who U.S. authorities have identified as a Chinese intelligence operative. Reuters stated it was unable to independently verify the allegation, and the Chinese side has denied it. Two informed sources said that Alice Huang has business dealings and investment relationships with Chinese tech companies such as Tencent and Alibaba, which did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Business filings in Singapore reviewed by Reuters show that Alibaba subsidiary Apex Enterprise Solutions had provided financing to Malaysian company Speedmatrix, which is associated with Megaspeed. Megaspeed denied illegally transshipping Nvidia chips subject to U.S. export controls to China. Two other informed sources stated that traders and intermediaries have begun hoarding restricted Nvidia artificial intelligence chips in China's gray market, with buyers concerned that the controversy may prompt the U.S. to take broader action against the smuggling of advanced chips and artificial intelligence servers.

According to Crypto Briefing, Lightning Labs released the open-source extension pi402 on November 12, enabling AI programming agents to use Bitcoin to pay for their reasoning fees via the Lightning Network. This tool is specifically built for Pi programming agents and does not require account registration, API keys, or credit cards; agents can resume work by paying invoices after seeing the prices.pi402 is based on the L402 protocol, combining the HTTP 402 "Payment Required" response with Lightning Network invoices, allowing for instant settlement after payment by the agent. This implements a token-based billing model, where agents pay based on actual consumption. Sellers can accept payments through the Aperture and Lightmeter tools, and neither party needs to run a Lightning node; payments are processed by the Ark-based Wavelength wallet. The demonstration price is approximately $0.375 per million input tokens and $1.5 per million output tokens.

Inflation data for October in the United States sends multiple warning signals. The data shows that the core CPI rose by 0.3% month-on-month, higher than the market expectation of 0.2%, exceeding expectations for the third consecutive month; the overall CPI rose by 0.4% month-on-month, also above expectations. The impact of rising energy prices is spreading to areas such as food and transportation, and service inflation remains robust, further complicating the Federal Reserve's efforts to control inflation.Specifically, food prices in the U.S. rose by 0.5% month-on-month in October, with grocery prices recording the largest monthly increase since April; urban transportation service prices saw the largest monthly increase since 2020, and prices for airline tickets and delivery services also increased. Additionally, service prices excluding energy and housing rents rose by 0.4% month-on-month, while owners' equivalent rent increased by 0.3%.AI investments are bringing new cost pressures. Over the past three months, the annualized price increase for computers and peripheral devices in the U.S. reached 25%, and electricity prices rose by 0.9% month-on-month in October, marking the largest increase in six months. Morgan Stanley estimates that AI-related factors have contributed about 6 basis points to the core CPI this year, with the current impact still relatively limited, but as data center investments expand, related pressures may rise further.In terms of monetary policy, Chicago Fed President Goolsbee described the latest inflation data as approaching an alarming level. Fed Governor Waller previously stated that if the core CPI month-on-month increase reaches 0.3% or higher, the December meeting should consider raising interest rates by 50 basis points. Goldman Sachs has included a forecast for an additional 25 basis point increase in March 2027, expecting that the target range for the federal funds rate will rise to 4.25% to 4.50%. However, some economists warn that there is a lag in the transmission of energy prices, and over-reliance on current data may lead to excessive tightening of monetary policy.
