Trump: Meta will invest $500 billion.
Truth: Meta will invest around $60 billion.
Thats a gross mis representation of what’s factually correct in monetary terms.
This fucking asshat is going to sink the American economy. No major company is going to do this. Why would TSMC spend “$500 billion” to build a factory?
Them just paying the tariff would be less than building a new factory. They just need to survive trumps term and frankly, when the U.S. can’t get chips at an affordable price from Taiwan, those tariffs will fall away like a pillar f sand during high tide.
Absolutely dumbest fucking turd on the planet.
I wish TSMC would open a factory in Europe.
Not only would it be very advantageous for the EU, it would sting like hell for the US.
They are already building one in Dresden, others are planned to follow. The CHIPS act is at last having an effect.
Americans will be paying the tariffs, not foreign companies.
Well they’ll also be paying it in reduced revenue lmao everyone loses
Lol no , if anyone thinks that its the best indicator that they dont know first thing about corpos … theyll just jack the end price
Yes, but when things are expensive people buy them less and corporations make less money
