| #9 Do you have any good links? Semiconductor equipment sales leaders by year Most of the key chip making equipment suppliers are US. The non-US and key supplier for 7nm is ASML in the Netherlands. They make extreme UV photolithography equipment. |

| #8 Micron - here in Boise - is a pretty good chip fab headquartered right here in the USA. I worked there for a couple of years. The ChiComs continually tried to hack into it to get the designs. |

| #7 Best fab has been, and likely will stay, Taiwan. |

| #5 Mr Munster, that's very interesting. I thought that the semi manufacturing was made on the the Pacific Rim these days. Do you have any good links? I doubt lack of funds would be a problem for the CCP. |

| #4 I bought my Samsung phone because it was NOT Made in China. |

| #3 If Samsung were to sneakily advertise that buying from them puts a middle finger up at China then I wonder if that would be a form of BUYcott? |

| #2 Via InstaPundit: Samsung and SK Hynix will reportedly stop selling components to Huawei as the Trump administration tightens sanctions on the Chinese phone maker. Taiwanese chipmaker TSMC reportedly suspended sales to Huawei this May after an earlier round of restrictions. |

| #1 Big news. This was China's attempt to become a leading edge chip manufacturer at 7nm. Good news for Taiwan and South Korea and only TSMC and Samsung are making chips at 7nm. Intel is stupidly stuck at 10nm. China had been stuck at 2-3 generations behind. Trump admin denied the machines to make the chips (US made, even got the Dutch ASML company to cooperate). Screws Huawei and just about every other Chinese electronics manufacturer that wants to sell into the international market as imports of US origin/designed chips are being strangled. Also screws the thousands of chip engineers that the Chinese poached from TSMC. Decoupling picking up steam. |
