President Tump and TSMC's head honcho C.C. Wei took the the Roosevelt Room in the White House yesterday to announce a monstrous $100 billion investment plan in the US including three new fabs or factories that manufacture computer chips. However, the investment is under review by the Taiwanese government which has emphasised that TSMC's most advanced technology will remain in Taiwan.
It's not entirely clear if the new investment is entirely distinct from the $65 billion TSMC has already said it plans to invest in the US. But at minimum, it's a significant scaling up of that commitment.
