TSMC and ASML Dominate Chip Industry with Unbreakable Moats
The semiconductor industry is dominated by two companies that have built an unbreachable moat in advanced chip technology.
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM) and ASML are ahead of their competitors, including Intel and Nvidia, due to their unmatched technology and production capacity.
TSMC has a reputation for efficiently producing complex semiconductor chips at scale, with nearly 100% of its fabrication done by the company.
The company's clients include not just Nvidia but also Apple, making TSMC one of the top stocks to own in the AI race. Its ability to scale production and roll out cutting-edge technology has helped it build an unbreachable moat.
ASML, on the other hand, has a technological monopoly on a very important machine - extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV) machines that etch microscopic circuitry onto chips. This makes ASML one of the most important companies in the world, with its machines being integral to manufacturing semiconductor chips.
