The article from Yahoo Finance discusses TSMC's Arizona Fab 21, which is already facing challenges despite not yet being operational. TSMC, a leading semiconductor manufacturer, has encountered issues with workforce availability and rising costs, which are common in the U.S. but less so in Taiwan where TSMC is based. The facility, part of a broader push to bring semiconductor manufacturing back to the U.S., has seen its costs escalate due to inflation and labor shortages. Additionally, there are concerns about the U.S. government's CHIPS Act funding, which aims to subsidize such projects but comes with stringent conditions like profit-sharing and detailed reporting. These challenges highlight the complexities of relocating high-tech manufacturing to the U.S., including higher operational costs, cultural differences in work practices, and geopolitical considerations.
