TSMC sees slow down in orders
 

Not even*3nm technology can save it

TSMC is seeing a slowdown in orders from its leading customers, affecting the company's results starting in the fourth quarter of 2022.

The Tame Apple Press is gobsmacked by the news because TSMC is making Jobs' Mob's*3nm technology and should be rolling in orders because everyone wants to own an iPhone, even those who don't.

DigiTimes said that TSMC's utilisation rate is expected to experience a significant drop in the first quarter of the year due to a 15 per cent reduction in orders from leading customers. Almost all of TSMC's clients are expected to experience a downturn and will need to reduce orders in the first quarter of 2023, leading to a significant decline in TSMC's utilisation rate. This will affect all of TSMC's production lines, including those that use 7nm, 6nm-class technologies (N7-capable lines), which are expected to only be using half capacity in early 2023.
