Bullish for NVIDIA
Nvidia H200 China Market Reopening
Stable
Steady attention in NVIDIA coverage, without a clear trend.
Updated 14 October 2026
The bullish argument: The reopening of the Chinese market for NVIDIA's H200 chips is expected to unlock significant sales potential, with sources claiming that Chinese companies have already placed orders for more than two million units pending delivery after 2026. This represents a substantial addressable opportunity if regulatory conditions remain permissive.
