It's being reported today that Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSMC) is aggressively recruiting over 600 engineers and executives for what will be its first U.S. plant in 20 years, Nikkei Asia has learned.

The world's largest contract chipmaker will initially bring together a mix of current employees and new hires to staff a $12 billion chipmaking plant it will start building next year in Arizona, TSMC Chairman Mark Liu told Nikkei. The hiring push comes with American officials and lawmakers calling on semiconductor companies to bring more of their operations to the U.S.

According to Liu, a task force of more than 300 current employees and managers with experience in developing and producing 5-nanometer chips will be dispatched to help get the plant off the ground. Five-nanometer chips are the most advanced in the world and are used in the latest iPhone 12 range and Mac processors. The U.S. has agreed to offer as many working visas as TSMC needs for this purpose

TSMC will disclose its capex plan for 2021 at its upcoming investors meeting. The pure-play foundry is expected to budget more than US$20 billion in capex this year, according to a report by Taiwan's Central News Agency (CNA).

TSMC's 2021 capex will beat the record-high target of US$17 billion set last year, the report quoted market watchers as saying. The foundry will utilize its capex this year for the expansion of its 5nm process capacity, installation of more-advanced 3nm process capacity, and 2nm process R&D.

TSMC will hold its quarterly investors meeting on January 14.

(Bloomberg) -- Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. expects to boost capital spending to as much as $28 billion this year in order to safeguard its lead in advanced technologies that made it chipmaker of choice to the world’s technology and auto giants.

Capital spending for 2021 is targeted at $25 billion to $28 billion, compared with $17.2 billion the previous year, Chief Financial Officer Wendell Huang said on a conference call. The increase in capex is intended to meet surging demand for the chipmaker’s advanced technologies, he added. Revenue for the first quarter is expected to at between $12.7 billion to $13 billion, ahead of the the average analyst estimate of $12.4 billion.

About 80% of the capital spending will be devoted to advanced processor technologies -- namely 3nm, 5nm and 7nm -- development, Huang said.

I predict Frontken will announce a share bonus or split very soon, judging by the rapidity of its share prices.
