What happened
Reached its target in 61 days.
The thesis — published November 15, 2025
TSMC's share price looks washed out after a sharp slide, while interest in the company remains very strong. Many pros still see it as a key supplier for AI chips. Fresh news highlights a planned $165B factory build in Phoenix, which should ease tariff and supply worries and support steady demand for several quarters. If the price turns up toward its recent average and buyer interest broadens, that would support a rebound over the next 3 months.
Primary drivers
- Price dropped a lot, yet investor mood remains very positive
- Essential chip maker for AI, adding new factories in the U.S.
- $165B Phoenix plan cuts trade and supply chain worries
- Likely turn up if price firms and buying strength improves
