  Taiwan Semiconductor stock is higher Thursday after the chip manufacturer beat expectations for its fourth quarter and issued a strong outlook. Here's what you need to know.

The article from Kiplinger discusses the recent earnings report from Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), a key player in the semiconductor industry. TSMC reported a significant year-over-year revenue increase of 16.5% in the first quarter, driven by strong demand for high-performance computing and smartphone chips. Despite global economic uncertainties, TSMC's CEO, C.C. Wei, expressed optimism about future growth, particularly in the AI sector, although he noted potential challenges like a softening smartphone market and geopolitical tensions. The company also provided an upbeat outlook for the second quarter, expecting revenue to grow by 20% to 25% year-over-year. This performance has implications for other chip stocks, as TSMC's results often set the tone for the industry, influencing investor sentiment towards companies like Nvidia, AMD, and Qualcomm, which rely on TSMC for manufacturing. The article also touches on broader market trends, including the impact of U.S.-China trade relations and the ongoing chip shortage affecting various sectors.
