Even The World's Largest Chip Maker Bites The Economic Slowdown Dust Despite AI Hype
Portfolio Pulse from Upwallstreet
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC) reported disappointing Q2 results and postponed the production launch at its U.S. plant to 2025. Q2 revenue dropped 10% to $15.68 billion and net income declined 23.3% to $5.8 billion. TSMC's largest client, Apple, also reported a sales drop for the second consecutive quarter. The delay in TSMC's U.S. plant production is a setback for Apple, Nvidia, and Advanced Micro Devices, who committed to source chips from the plant, and for the Biden administration's efforts to boost semiconductor manufacturing.
