Here is what Bonsai Partners said:
“Taiwan Semiconductor is the world’s largest outsourced foundry of semiconductor chips.
Taiwan Semiconductor roughly grew in line with the market: appreciating approximately 20% during the quarter.
While TSMC typically stays out of the limelight, the company was an object of media attention during the quarter due to the U.S.-China trade war. In particular, the Trump administration blocked TSMC from selling chips to its second-largest customer, the Chinese company Huawei.
I won’t get too deep into the specifics, but this was a remarkable development considering TSMC is a Taiwanese company with a limited U.S. presence. Fortunately, the market for semiconductor chips is a large and growing one, which led TSMC’s management to indicate that they expect to quickly replace Huawei’s lost volumes (which represent around 10-15% of sales). I continue to monitor this development.
This recent issue surprisingly highlights part of the rationale behind our TSMC investment – as the leading player in the outsourced foundry market, not having access to TSMC puts even a very large and capable company like Huawei at a significant disadvantage. Taiwan Semiconductor is an increasingly crucial partner for most players in the world of fabless semiconductors.”
