TSMC Eyes Smaller Gap Between US, Taiwan Chipmaking

The move by TSMC to bridge the gap between its US and Taiwan operations reflects a broader trend in the semiconductor industry, where geopolitical factors and supply chain resilience are becoming increasingly critical. By investing in US manufacturing, TSMC not only addresses local demand but also positions itself strategically against potential trade tensions. This could lead to a more balanced global semiconductor supply chain, but it also raises questions about cost efficiency and technological parity.
