Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) has crossed the symbolic milestone of $1 trillion in market value, cementing its status as a key player in the global semiconductor industry.

Here's What We Know

This growth was made possible by growing demand for advanced chips for artificial intelligence - particularly from giants such as NVIDIA and Apple.

A new impetus was given by the presentation of the quarterly report with convincing forecasts and revenue growth. Particular attention is drawn to 3nm chips, the production of which the company is actively increasing. Investor confidence is supported by expansion plans - TSMC is already building factories in Arizona and Japan, strengthening its global presence amid growing geopolitical pressure.

TSMC became the first Taiwanese company to reach this level of capitalisation. Shares rose sharply after the presentation of financial results, and analysts see a steady upward trend - thanks not only to the current AI boom, but also to the structure of global contracts, where TSMC remains an indispensable link.
