Benefiting from the AI boom, Taiwan Semiconductor's stock price has risen over 30% this year. Despite sluggish growth in the consumer electronics market, Taiwan Semiconductor's transition to advanced manufacturing processes has made each unit of chip more profitable. Investments in the AI sector continue to drive Taiwan Semiconductor's long-term growth. Taiwan Semiconductor will release its complete third-quarter financial report on October 16 Due to major U.S. technology companies continuously investing billions of dollars in artificial intelligence, Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM.N) reported a 30% year-on-year increase in its third-quarter sales. For the three months ending in September, the company's revenue totaled NT$ 989.9 billion, exceeding analysts' average expectations of NT$ 962.8 billion. Benefiting from the ongoing AI boom, this Asian company with the highest market capitalization has seen its stock price rise over 30% this year. Although the consumer electronics market has recently shown weak growth, TSMC's shift to more advanced manufacturing processes is making each unit of chip sold more profitable. In the AI field, U.S. tech companies from NVIDIA to OpenAI are spending billions to build their cloud computing capabilities, which TSMC executives view as a major long-term growth driver. Despite concerns that the "circular trading" recently reached by these companies is creating a massive bubble, TSMC's latest sales data indicates that AI demand remains solid for now. TSMC is scheduled to release its complete third-quarter financial report on October 16 ### Related Stocks - [TSM.US - Taiwan Semiconductor](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSM.US.md) - [SOXL.US - Direxion Semicon Bull 3X](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOXL.US.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | Mouser Electronics to Highlight Latest Semiconductors and Technologies for Engineers at DesignCon 2026 | Mouser Electronics will showcase its latest semiconductors and technologies at DesignCon 2026, taking place from Februar | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276069036.md) | | QQQ Just Sent a Chilling Signal — Right Before Nvidia Earnings | QQQ Just Sent a Chilling Signal — Right Before Nvidia Earnings | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276356115.md) | | SemiQ partners with distributor NAC Semi across North America | SemiQ Inc has partnered with NAC Semi to enhance the distribution of its silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductors acro | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276074309.md) | | Key facts: Samsung stock soars 5.4%; HBM4 chip production begins | Samsung Electronics (005930) stock hit a record high, rising 5.4% after a break.
