Comment on One of Bloomberg’s sources told them Chinese spy chip story “didn’t make sense”parent

I don't know, previous revelations of wide scale breaches haven't affected the target companies that much.

But those were one-time breaches related to patchable software flaws, and nobody knew for sure if a national-backed entity did it (maybe except Stuxnet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuxnet). They were not hardware and not directly linked to the Chinese government.

They almost all cause an immediate loss in value though. Knowing that knowledge beforehand would net someone a lot of money.

Especially around earnings season...
