Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 27 days.
The thesis — published May 26, 2026
TSM is viewed as the top-quality chip manufacturer here because sales have more than doubled compared to last year, profit margins are wide, quarterly results keep surprising on the upside, and the company holds a lot of cash. Recent reports emphasize its strategic importance in Taiwan while an executive share sale and weak market momentum argue for careful timing over the next few months.
Primary drivers
- Leader in making advanced chips for AI and high-performance computing
- Sales more than doubled compared to last year with strong profits
- Large cash pile lowers downside risk versus higher-debt chip peers
- News strengthens strategic position despite an executive share sale
Prices are shown split- and dividend-adjusted, matching what public charts show today.
