Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 80 days.
The thesis — published October 27, 2025
The stock has dipped, which can be a good time to buy a strong business. TSMC is launching 2 nm chips that use 25% to 30% less power, helping it keep a lead and charge fair prices. It supplies AI and high performance computing, and advanced packaging demand keeps factories busy. If tensions stay calm, a rebound in the next 3 months is realistic.
Primary drivers
- 2 nm chips use 25% to 30% less power, improving performance and efficiency
- Critical supplier for AI and high performance computing customers worldwide
- Recent price dip with improving buyer mood suggests a near-term recovery
- Strong demand for advanced packaging lifts revenue per chip and margins
