  • TSMC CEO: Global Chip Supply to Lag Behind AI Demand for Years
    TSMC held its annual shareholders meeting in Hsinchu, where Chairman and CEO C.C. Wei stated that global chip supply will continue to fall short of the surging AI demand for several years. According to Odaily, even with TSMC's capacity expansion in the United States, it will be challenging to fully meet the needs of American clients, and achieving a supply-demand balance will take time. Wei reiterated that TSMC's sales are expected to grow by over 30% this year. The company's capital expenditure is projected to approach the upper limit of $56 billion, while global major hyperscale cloud service providers are expected to spend $725 billion in the AI sector. TSMC's stock in Taipei saw a slight decline of 1% due to Broadcom's performance outlook, although it has increased more than fourfold over the past three years. Wei also mentioned that employee bonuses are set to rise by over 30% this year.

  • Broadcom Forecast and US Data Weigh on Global Stocks
    Global stocks opened lower on Thursday following a disappointing forecast from chip giant Broadcom, which raised concerns about the AI trade. According to RTHK, stronger-than-expected US economic data further fueled speculation that the Federal Reserve might increase interest rates. Fresh Iranian attacks and stalled peace talks with the United States added to the negative sentiment, although oil prices fell on news of a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. Regional equity markets mirrored Wall Street's decline, where tech firms suffered after Broadcom's third-quarter chip revenue forecast fell short of expectations. In Hong Kong, the Hang Seng Index dropped 167 points, or 0.66 percent, to 25,465 at the open. Other markets, including Shanghai, Sydney, Singapore, Wellington, and Taipei, also saw declines. Jakarta experienced a more than one percent drop, reaching its lowest level since 2021, as the Indonesian rupiah hit a record low amid economic concerns. Traders were unsettled by data showing US companies added the most jobs since early last year, despite rising energy prices. This comes ahead of a closely watched non-farm payrolls report due Friday, which could intensify pressure on the Fed to raise rates if it shows strong job growth.
