When the World Fractures, TSMC Matters More

Recent geopolitical developments (most notably escalating tensions in the Middle East, including the US' "brilliant" strikes on Iran 2026 by its "dear leader", alongside rising energy prices) introduce a more complex macro backdrop for TSMC. At first glance, higher oil prices and global uncertainty appear negative, implying demand risk and multiple compression.
