The U.S. government has delayed export approval for American-made semiconductor manufacturing equipment needed for SK Hynix's factory expansion in Dalian, China. The delay impacts SK Hynix's plans to invest approximately $45 billion in two NAND flash production plants in Marcy, New York, as the company needs revenue from the China expansion to fund the U.S. investment.
