If its upto China India will retake that 5th place very soon.
Taiwan population: 23.26 million
India population: 1.451 billion
Truly different destinies, different fates.
45% of the total Taiwan stock market cap is TSMC alone.
Half of it is TSMC.
pc chip stocks I assume?

Semiconductor is the key driver of stock growth in AI era. Taiwan made that bid 40 years ago, and it pays off. TSMC founder was rejected by Intel executives before TSMC was even founded. Truly remarkable.
I’m willing to bet this is because of what the AI boom (or bubble) has caused for chip demands
China is rubbing its hands together and licking its lips.
It’s clear as day who’s jealous in the comment
How can he overtake?!?!?
The issue is that close to half of that is one company. It does show that the country really REALLY has to diversify.
I often see Taiwan as a nation that developing nations ought to emulate(It found a niche and excelled in that niche. Now it is one of the nations that is absolutely indispensable to the global economy), it has sabotaged itself on several occasions, like the ruling party being completely anti-nuclear. I understand being opposed to large power plants due to the lack of waste disposal sites and earthquakes, but being opposed even to SMRs makes no sense.
TSMC singlehandedly delaying CCP takeover.
Sure this won‘t blow up in our faces soon…..
The semiconductor chip market is no joke it seems
