TSMC invests in new capacity despite forecasts chip demand will ease

Posted by in categories: business, computing

Last year, Germany spent $53 billion on defense. This year, TSMC is spending $44 billion on chip factories. (In 2019, TSMC only spent $14.9 billion, so they are spending insane amounts of money trying to fix the chip shortage.) Pretty much everyone in the chip business is also dramatically increasing their spending as well.


TSMC investment will “put a ceiling” on Samsung, Intel’s foundry plans.
