What happened
Christian Lamarco, founder of the short seller Culper Research, says Megaspeed is not the only company helping China access chips. He says Culper flagged problems tied to Nvidia's China dealings months earlier and remains confident in its research. Separately, Dan Niles, founder of Niles Investment Management, said he began buying Nvidia shares amid probe-driven selling.
Why it matters
The probe has triggered selling of Nvidia shares, and Lamarco's new claims widen the focus beyond Megaspeed.
