#3While the world wouldn't grind to a complete halt without Taiwan, they are a (the?) major player in high end chips.
While not 100% watching it I feel as though ChinaUS relations have whole strategies around Taiwan.
Of course, if war over Taiwan breaks out, I plan to hit up my local computer shop, preferably within the hour.

The only other players are Samsung and Intel at this point I think.

I think if there is a U.S. China war over Taiwan we have larger issues.

You will hit up your local draft station instead.
Even if an immediate retaliation would not not happen, it will within years.

China will not attempt to invade Taiwan (at least not now).
But the threat of invasion will be continued to played up in US politics in order to support increased military spending and aggressive industrial policies towards US allies (in particular Taiwan but also South Korea).
