According to the International homepage, America’s top semiconductor company has seen its shares quadruple, signalling a strong market reaction, but the firm has yet to prove itself a serious manufacturing competitor to Taiwan’s TSMC.
The company’s share price has risen fourfold since the report, reflecting investor optimism. However, analysts note that despite this surge, the firm has not demonstrated the manufacturing scale, technology capability, or production volume that would enable it to challenge TSMC’s dominance in the global supply chain.
The United States has made semiconductor manufacturing a strategic priority, and the ability of domestic players to match TSMC’s advanced process nodes is a key measure of national competitiveness.
