17 JULBIGGERPOCKETS REAL ESTATE PODCAST · 04:55
TSMC acts as Taiwan's global silicon shield
“The geopolitical case was argued that Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company serves as a vital 'silicon shield' protecting Taiwan from Chinese invasion due to its status as a global manufacturing choke point.”

17 JULTHE COMPOUND AND FRIENDS · 03:50
Skepticism over Intel's foundry turnaround
“The bear case for Intel suggests that despite Lip-Bu Tan's strong leadership reputation, executing a successful leading-edge foundry business in the US remains highly uncertain.”
Substantive discussion · 3/5Verify in source →
17 JULWHAT BITCOIN DID · 13:30
US semiconductor independence will diminish Taiwan's strategic value
“The guest argued that the US is aggressively building domestic semiconductor fabrication facilities to reduce its reliance on Taiwan, which will eventually lead to a US geopolitical pullback from the region.”
