US advanced-technology imports from China fell $11.8 billion in January to July 2026 versus the same months of 2025. One category accounted for 99.8% of that net decline. Information and communications products, including computers, fell from $32.1 billion to $20.4 billion. All other advanced-technology imports from China combined barely moved, from $6.378 billion to $6.357 billion. Meanwhile, US imports in that same category surged 78% worldwide, to $485.3 billion. The Taiwan comparison shows why the category matters. Its share of all US advanced-technology imports jumped from 14.4% to 20.1%. Within information and communications, its share moved only from 25.2% to 25.6%. America is buying a different mix of imported technology. Those changes can enlarge a country’s headline market share without a comparable gain inside the main category. The figures do not establish that Chinese factories moved to Taiwan or that production returned to the US.
