Amsterdam-listed ASML and Besi Semiconductor triggered automatic trading halts after their shares fell between 8% and 8.7%. According to a report by The Information citing people familiar with the matter, a company backed by Chinese state-owned capital has begun mass-producing independently developed DUV (deep ultraviolet) lithography equipment, a key milestone in China’s semiconductor industry’s push for domestic substitution. The firm plans to manufacture around 5 DUV lithography machines in 2026, expanding output to roughly 20 units in 2027. While a significant capacity gap remains with Dutch lithography giant ASML, which delivered 131 immersion DUV lithography systems last year, the mass production of domestically developed DUV equipment marks a further step toward self-reliance and control in China’s chip manufacturing supply chain. Sources added that these domestic DUV lithography machines are scheduled for delivery to major Chinese chip makers, including Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC), Hua Hong Semiconductor, and memory chip supplier Changxin Memory Technologies.

Amazon has submitted an application to the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to launch and deploy a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation comprising 5,105 satellites by 2028, for providing Direct-to-Device (D2D) mobile communication services. The initiative will further expand Amazon’s satellite internet project and directly challenge SpaceX’s Starlink’s leading position in the global satellite communications space. According to reports, Amazon intends to offer users satellite mobile connectivity without requiring additional hardware through its large-scale LEO network, with future coverage potentially extending to remote regions, maritime areas, and zones underserved by traditional communication networks. SpaceX has been advancing the commercialization of its Starlink satellite internet and exploring Direct-to-Device satellite services. Amazon’s latest expansion marks a further escalation of competition in the global satellite communications market.
