In an unexpected turn, the New York Stock Exchange
said Monday that it no longer intends to delist China’s three major telecoms operators, a decision that was originally announced on December 31.
The initial action targeted China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom as part of the Trump Administration’s move to
bar investment in companies deemed to supply and support China’s military, intelligence and security services.
The
current blacklist names 35 companies, including the parent organizations of the three listed telecoms firms as well as Huawei and China’s major chipmaker SMIC.
