- TSMC CEO C.C. Wei noted that US tariffs affect the company indirectly because tariffs target importers, not exporters like TSMC.
- The firm is actively discussing tariff impacts with the US Department of Commerce to address potential cost increases in its US investments.
- Strong demand for AI chips remains, surpassing supply even amid geopolitical tensions and tariff challenges.
- TSMC has no plans to build factories in the Middle East due to insufficient customer base and faces margin pressure from Taiwan dollar appreciation.
