Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) (TSM), the world’s leading semiconductor foundry, ended 2025 on a solid note, fueled by surging demand for advanced nodes and AI accelerators. While the company will report its first-quarter earnings report on April 16, it provided an early glimpse with preliminary Q1 revenue growth of 35%, showing the strength of the current AI cycle. TSM stock has surged 23% year-to-date (YTD) and 147% over the past 52 weeks, outperforming the broader market.
With massive capital spending, margin pressures from global expansion, and the ramp-up of next-generation technologies, the Q1 report will reveal if TSM stock still has room to run.
