On July 16, Christopher Hodge, former chief economist of the New York Federal Reserve and current chief economist for Natixis in the U.S., stated that Fed Chair Waller's tough hawkish stance may be setting a dangerous 'credibility trap' for himself. Hodge pointed out that Waller's aversion to 'forward guidance' and the 'dot plot' is reasonable in the current uncertain environment, but it also reveals a dangerous tendency. 'Waller came across as extremely hawkish in his first meeting, emphasizing 'price stability' in bold and with exclamation marks in almost every statement,' Hodge analyzed, noting that this excessive hawkish posture could be self-restricting. If CPI data in the coming months is noisy due to short-term disturbances (such as tariffs or energy shocks), Waller may be forced to raise rates due to the 'persona' he has established, even if it is not the optimal choice. Interestingly, Hodge quipped that Waller's only two 'dovish' performances in his career occurred during his interviews for the Fed Chair position. This return to a hawkish stance may reflect a return to his personal beliefs, but it could also limit the Fed's policy flexibility. Despite Waller's sharp rhetoric, Natixis expects the Fed to keep interest rates unchanged throughout 2026.

According to monitoring by Dongcha Beating, Reuters reviewed documents and cited informed sources stating that ZTE's subsidiary, ZTE Kangxun Telecom, has received U.S. approval to purchase NVIDIA's H200. Server manufacturer Maginfra has also received the same approval. Another company under Kingsoft has been authorized to procure certain similar AMD chips. These three companies had not been disclosed previously. In May of this year, the U.S. approved about 10 Chinese companies, including Alibaba, Tencent, ByteDance, and JD.com, to purchase the H200. Approval does not equate to immediate delivery. Some Chinese cloud service providers have recently indicated to partners that they may soon receive the H200, indicating progress in China's import review process.

According to Beating Monitoring, Jeffrey Kessler, the Deputy Secretary of the U.S. Department of Commerce responsible for export controls, confirmed that a small quantity of NVIDIA H200 chips has been licensed and arrived in China. Actual shipments began after the U.S. approved the H200 in December last year. Kessler did not disclose the quantity or buyers, only stating that the shipment scale is 'insignificant.' Each license requires verification of the buyer, intended use, and chip performance, with strict prohibitions against military and nuclear, missile, and biochemical weapons-related projects. Although the U.S. has opened the export channel for H200 to China, the current deliveries remain symbolic in scale, and large-scale sales are still a long way off.
