Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) dominates the pure foundry market with a 72% share and produces nearly 99% of AI ASICs for major hyperscalers, positioning it for durable, profitable growth driven by AI demand. The company is expanding capacity to meet high-performance computing needs, though it faces near-term gross margin pressure from overseas expansion efforts.
