☆ Water scarcity threatens chipmakers like TSMC and could push prices higher, according to S&P
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-29 | by ( Sheila Chiang | In Sheilachiang | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

Semiconductor firms such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company are at risk of water shortages as processing technology advances, S&P Global Ratings said in a report. "There is a direct line between water use and chip sophistication, as fabs use ultrapure water — fresh water processed to extremely high purity — to rinse wafers between each process. The more advanced the semiconductor, the more process steps, the more water consumed," said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Hins Li. TSMC's water consumption per unit grew over 35% after it advanced to 16-nanometer process nodes in 2015, data from S&P revealed. "We believe this was mainly due to the migration to advanced nodes, which require more fabrication processes," S&P said.

Smartphone makers flooded Mobile World Congress to show off new AI features. More AI tools are moving on to devices, which would make them faster and cheaper to run. Now, as the industry looks to capitalize on the AI boom and galvanize a stagnating mobile market, phone makers want the AI tools to run locally on the phone itself. The company attended MWC to tout how it's helping phone makers such as Samsung and Honor run more AI tools on their phones. Samsung was also there, previewing some of the AI tools it's begun to roll out on its phones, including a nifty live-translation feature.

Samsung Electronics on Tuesday said it has developed a new high-bandwidth memory chip that has the "highest-capacity to date" in the industry. The South Korean chip giant claimed the HBM3E 12H "raises both performance and capacity by more than 50%." Samsung Electronics is the world's largest maker for dynamic random-access memory chips, which are used in consumer devices such as smartphones and computers. Generative AI models such as OpenAI's ChatGPT require large numbers of high-performance memory chips. "As AI applications grow exponentially, the HBM3E 12H is expected to be an optimal solution for future systems that require more memory.

☆ Chipmakers Seek More Than $70 Billion in Federal Subsidies
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-26 | by ( Madeleine Ngo | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

Companies that produce the most advanced semiconductors have requested more than $70 billion in federal subsidies, roughly twice the amount of funding that is available, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said on Monday. In an effort to revitalize domestic manufacturing of semiconductors, the federal government is distributing $39 billion in subsidies as an incentive for companies to produce more of the tiny chips that power everything from smartphones to cars and fighter jets. The funding is meant to strengthen the U.S. supply chain and reduce the country’s reliance on foreign sources of chips. In a speech on Monday at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, Ms. Raimondo said her department had received more than 600 statements of interest. Federal officials have had to be “tough with companies,” Ms. Raimondo said, adding that she has pushed company executives to “do more for less.” She added that the level of interest also meant that officials would “have to say no to excellent companies.”

Super Micro Computer has soared more than 182% since the start of the year, but the chipmaker has even more upside potential ahead thanks to artificial intelligence tailwinds, according to Rosenblatt. Another key factor in Super Micro's growth story is its liquid cooling solutions for data centers, Mosesmann added. Traditional chipmakers have been less adept in this segment, which opens the door for Super Micro to achieve "heightened hyper-scale engagement," according to the analyst. "The anticipation of increased research coverage should further illuminate Supermicro's business model and the opportunities in its [total addressable market]." Shares of Super Micro were up nearly 3% Tuesday during premarket trading.

If the Fed signals more rate cuts, then we will be set up for higher stock prices if the companies deliver good earnings.
