Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

AI-led growth and near-term packaging tightness suggest upside risk to TSMC earnings and multiple, with 2H2026 catalysts (N2 ramp, CoWoS). However, competition and costs could temper near-term gains; the net effect leans bullish if demand remains robust.
