Taiwan’s Economic Surge Amidst the AI Boom
As Nvidia plants its flag in Taipei, the heart of Taiwan’s technology hub, the island is poised for a real estate and economic boom. Spurred by AI demand, Taiwan’s economy grew at an impressive 8.6% last year. Key highlights include:
- Nvidia’s Expansion: Setting up a new headquarters, Nvidia is surpassing Apple as the largest customer of TSMC.
- Chipmakers Leading the Charge: TSMC, a titan in semiconductors, produced over 90% of the world’s advanced chips, driving massive profit growth.
- Foxconn’s Role: As a primary supplier for Nvidia and Apple, Foxconn is doubling its value, capitalizing on the AI frenzy.
However, significant risks loom:
- AI Bubble Concerns: Analysts warn of potential market instability reminiscent of the dot-com crash, prompting questions about Taiwan’s future.
- Geopolitical Tensions: Complications with Beijing could disrupt Taiwan’s vital tech supply chains.
