Taiwan says U.S. chip deal won’t hollow out its tech sector as $500B tariff pact takes shape

Taiwan moved to tamp down fears its chip and tech base will be stripped out by a new trade pact with Washington, as its flagship manufacturer TSMC pushes deeper into the United States. “This is not an industrial relocation, but instead an extension and expansion of Taiwan’s technology industry,” Vice Premier Cheng Li-chiun said at a briefing in Washington.

Global stock markets hover near records — but Fed-cut doubts and earnings could jolt prices

New York, Jan 17, 2026, 12:44 EST — Market closed.

Semiconductor stocks rally as TSMC lifts 2026 capex to $56 billion; ASML hits $500 billion mark

Semiconductor shares closed the week stronger Friday, with the PHLX Semiconductor index climbing 1.2%, despite the S&P 500 and Nasdaq finishing lower for the week. Earnings season picks up next week, featuring heavy hitters like Intel set to report. The late-week rally came after Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co, the world’s largest contract chipmaker, reported a 35% jump in fourth-quarter profit. TSMC also forecasted a nearly 30% rise in 2026 revenue in U.S. dollars and set capital spending at $52 billion to $56 billion for 2026. CEO C.C. Wei added the company was “very nervous about it.”

AI Stocks This Week: TSMC’s $56B Spending Plan Lifts Chip Names as New U.S. Tariffs Bite

AI Stocks This Week: TSMC’s $56B Spending Plan Lifts Chip Names as New U.S. Tariffs Bite

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co set the tone for AI-linked stocks this week after the chipmaker forecast 2026 revenue would rise nearly 30% and put 2026 capital spending, or capex, at $52 billion to $56 billion, underscoring demand for processors used to train and run AI systems. Chief Executive C.C. Wei also pointed to a push for more U.S. capacity, saying an Arizona land buy “gives you a hint” of plans to expand “many fabs” there, while warning TSMC was “very nervous” about investing at that scale. The numbers matter because TSMC sits in the middle of the AI supply chain: more factory spending can translate into more orders for chipmaking tools, and steadier output for designers that sell the chips into data centers.

Micron stock jumps on $7.8 million insider buy as big banks lift AI-memory targets

Micron stock jumps on $7.8 million insider buy as big banks lift AI-memory targets

Micron Technology shares rose more than 6% in premarket trading on Friday after a company director disclosed buying about $7.8 million of stock this week. The move came as Barclays, Wells Fargo and Citi lifted their price targets on the memory-chip maker. The run-up underscores how quickly money has been flowing back into memory stocks, long seen as cyclical bets, on expectations that artificial-intelligence servers will keep soaking up chips. Micron and SanDisk, along with Western Digital and Seagate Technology, were among the gainers, as investors bet higher prices for DRAM — short for dynamic random access memory — and NAND flash storage will stick.
