    ASML Faces Domestic Chinese Competition in DUV Lithography Systems

    Question

    ASML Faces Domestic Chinese Competition in DUV Lithography Systems

    Direct answer

    The emergence of a domestic Chinese DUV competitor marks a critical turning point for ASML. While the company still holds a monopoly on the more advanced EUV systems, the loss of the DUV market in China removes a significant revenue cushion. Investors must now weigh the growth of EUV against the structural decline of ASML's largest historical growth market.
