Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 65 days.
The thesis — published November 11, 2025
TSMC makes advanced chips for AI. Investor interest is very high, and the price looks beaten down, so the $288-294 range looks reasonable for buying gradually. October sales rose 16.9% versus last year, though growth slowed. The recent bounce in chip stocks shows investors refocusing on AI demand. Short-term signals are mixed, but a move back to recent highs in the next 0-3 months is possible. Geopolitical risks remain.
Primary drivers
- Leader in making top-tier chips for AI, a fast-growing market.
- Very strong investor interest while the stock looks beaten down.
- Recent bounce in chip stocks shows investors warming to the group.
- October sales rose 16.9% vs last year, though growth cooled.
