Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway bought $4.1 billion in Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM) stock in Q3 2022 but sold the entire position within two quarters due to geopolitical concerns around Taiwan. Buffett praised TSM as a top-managed company critical to the AI boom, manufacturing 90% of the world's advanced chips. Despite TSM's dominant role enabling AI advancements, Buffett's decision highlights how geopolitical risks can outweigh strong business fundamentals. Investors must weigh TSM's unmatched industry position against ongoing geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and China involving Taiwan.
