President Trump stated during an interview with CNBC that new tariffs on semiconductors and chips will be announced as soon as next week. He claimed that TSMC will invest $30 billion (approximately NT$897 billion) in Arizona to build the world's largest wafer fabrication plant. Trump emphasized that this investment will help promote the US manufacturing semiconductor industry and ensure that critical technology remains in the hands of the US. He did not reveal more details, but emphasized that the announcement will be made within 'a week or so.' TSMC has yet to officially respond to this news.
