This is just my opinion, we have to see how ng wai going to tell about this. Because i think the semicon business is not all about 1 1=2..its rather complex.
There will be no issues for TSMC at all since their foundry position is still irreplaceable. Is this applicable on advanced precision cleaning? Frontken can decide to expand us so can their competitors. Unless you believe inventories should grow a lot globally, splitting to two different regions will not be cost efficient for the rest supply chain players.
TSMC depends greatly on their customers needs. One of the largest being Apple.
Apple generates about 45% of revenue comes from US, I believe it makes sense for TSMC to have their operations in US to support one of their biggest clients.
Besides that, this Covid-19 and trade war, also reveals that operation should not be based in a single location to avoid country risks, and political issues.
However, whether TSMC would actually build it operations in US , would depend who is the next president of US in November 2020.
Furthermore, TSMC mentioned that actual construction will only begin in 2021, it shows that TSMC is also waiting to know the results of the election in Nov. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Posted by abn10 > May 15, 2020 7:55 PM | Report Abuse
@newbie8080 there are many factors come into play. One of them might be because of increasing demand since we all know tsmc is the largest semicon globally. Unless of u think that tsmc would split its orders into two regions, while the demand is still the same, tsmc might be going in the wrong way which i think they are not. My take is that whenever tsmc keeps growing its business, we know that frontken has made a great deal of businwss with tsmc when they made an agreement to supply for them. And FYI, frontken EV/EBITDA is still highly undervalued
@abn10, in summary, basically he does not see the arizona plant to be a negative for tsmc, whether it is strategically, economically, politically wise, hes not concern of drop of huawei's sales as well, as long as tsmc maintains its lead in the adv techs. In the video he also mentioned the capex, production, time horizon and techs for the arizona plant, added in some history lessons as well to support his argument.

Glove stock showing lack of selling pressure at the end of the trading day. Means that today selling is just panic selling from traders, regarding the news on the margin thing by banks.
tmathi its obvious based on yesterday candlestick..glove begin yesterday with panic selling but regain its momentum at the end of yesterday trading session..
Yesterday gloves pengoreng spreaded words the current price was still far away from banks' target price. Banks are actually the ones that are pushing the gloves price up.
@joyvest i remember seeing u somewhere else, tell me its not here? What do u mean what is going on? Nothing anomaly happened as of today. No bad news either. Unless u are intraday player, can go to glove counter
