ASML Holding NV is investing heavily in high numerical aperture (NA) chipmaking machines, priced over $400 million each, with production ramping up to serve major clients like Taiwan Semiconductor and Intel. The company has shipped five high NA machines and plans to deliver at least five more in 2025. Despite a nearly 7% stock decline this year due to semiconductor sanctions, ASML's stock rose 0.84% to $743.39. CEO Christophe Fouquet emphasized keeping machine prices manageable to lower chipmaking costs, aligning with Moore's law.
