Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) saw its shares fall 7% following Chinese President Xi Jinping's warning about Taiwan, despite a diplomatic thaw during the first U.S. presidential visit to China in nearly a decade. TSMC remains a critical player in the global semiconductor market, holding about 70% market share in 2025, and continues to grow with strong Q1 2026 revenue driven by AI demand.
