I suppose all the chip acts haven't really kicked in yet, so it'll be interesting to see how the regional deliveries shift. In their Presentation Investor Relations file for 2022, they have Taiwan as their #1 destination by dollar spend.

Taiwan 42%

South Korea 29%

China 14%

USA 7%

Japan 4%

Europe, Middle East, Africa (EMEA) 2%

Rest of Asia 2%

Ok, and? No but on a serious note, can someone give some context? Is there something special about these numbers that is newsworthy?

It comes from ASML

They and TSMC are one of the hottest companies that additionally do hard engineering instead of social medias or ads

I wonder where the machines for TSMC's Arizona fabs would end up in that breakdown.

ASML has a monopoly on Extreme UV lithography machines which are needed for top end chips. So it's a pretty good picture of where investment in chip fabrication is heading.

The header to the graph says "Ship to Location" so probably under the US, unless they ship older units from Taiwan to the US and send new units to Taiwan. Intel reportedly sent at least one EUV machine from their development site in Oregon to a production fab in Ireland, so it's possible they could do the same.

AMAT (Applied Materials) would be company representing the US in this space.

AMAT and ASML sell mostly complimentary semiconductor equipment to TSMC/Intel/Samsung (semiconductor manufacturers/fabs)

I wasn't aware that South Korea was such a big player in the chip industry. Is this for compute or something else?
