Will TSMC escape tariffs with pledge for $100B in U.S. chip manufacturing plants?

It was a hurricane of a news that was on the tariff front and the Taiwan tariffs so far. In order to build a chip producing chip in the United States, the TSMC can provide the time of $ 100 billion.

Taiwanese Country Manufacturer Production Co. The world is the largest chipmaker, but most of the chips are made in Taiwan. Donald Trump announced that the TSMC will earn at least $ 100 billion in the next four years of the chip produced by the TSMC on Monday.

TSMC, a $ 65 billion pledge, builds new factories in Arizona, and now additional cash, chairman of CC Wei, Chairman and CEO of Director of Director of TSMC and Director General of TSMC and General Director of TSMC. All he would support the production of AI chips.

“I think that this is the tariffs of Taiwan. I have not doubted that this decision has been a political influence.”

TSMC received $ 6.6 billion grant from the Bipartisan Agreement during the Biden Administration to increase the internal semiconductor production. TSMC now plans to invest $ 165 billion in the US chip factory

But the big question is as much work as it can cause. TSMC had to bring a large number of engineers from Taiwan to speed up new chips in terms of quality. The United States was the birthplace of the industry, but it is not a talent of engineering because it is transferred to the sea.

“I believe that the TSMC encountered 50-100% of tariffs, and it was forced to make choices and growing US investments.” “I don’t think the tariffs will be zero, they will be lower and I do not think that TSMC will further increase it as it is intended.”

Trump said that the new investment is to $ 165 billion in the new investment TSMC to $ 165 billion. Intel also received more than $ 2 billion with the Fish and Science Act, and this promised to invest heavily in the US production. However, Intel, in recent years, had a difficult time to be competitive with TSMC.

Trump threatened by bringing tariffs Before the Taiwan, it was retreated when he declared tariffs in China, Mexico and Canada. Apple said that for the products of this will invest more than $ 500 billion in US production.

TSMC did not give a while for the newly announced investments, but it said he would add 40,000 construction work over the next four years. Companies such as NVIDIA, AMD and QUALCOMM are among the large customers of the TSMC.

This Consumer Technology Association (Cta), the tariffs will damage American consumers, reducing purchasing power to $ 90 billion, he said to $ 143 billion, he said. This Entertainment Program Union He also concerned about the tariffs. CTA said that the proposed tariffs are proposed in laptops and tablets, 46%, 40%, 26% and smartphones can increase prices.
