    Semiconductor Stocks Down 22% From Peak; TSMC Market Share Hits 73%

    Question

    Semiconductor Stocks Down 22% From Peak; TSMC Market Share Hits 73%

    Direct answer

    The 22% drawdown in semiconductors reflects macro fears and rising yields rather than a slowdown in AI orders. Nvidia's 12-to-1 demand ratio suggests that supply, not demand, remains the limiting factor for the industry. TSMC's dominant 73% market share provides it with unique pricing power, though it remains exposed to the broader valuation compression affecting the Nasdaq-100.
