The rating agency analyst believes that these bans to Huawei would affect the technology sector more than telecommunications, given the short-term impact on Huawei's suppliers, according to this agency in a press release. Habib believes that the consequences could be manageable in the short term for technology and telecommunications companies, but decisive in the long term. In his opinion, this veto would serve as a catalyst for Huawei and the Chinese administration to accelerate their investment in technology to reduce dependence on foreign suppliers in critical components. In turn, this ban could increase competition in the technology sector and potentially reduce the long-term growth prospects of technology companies in the United States, according to this analyst.
