The company is a critical supplier to U.S. technology giants likeApple(AAPL) andQualcomm(QCOM) and Chinese companies like Huawei Technologies. TSMC’s stock is widely held across the globe, and for good reason. It has returned an annualized 29% over the past decade.</p>\n<p>But TSMC shares are now caught up in a rare correction. The stock is down 15% since mid-February. Investors should avoid the temptation to buy on the dip, at least for now. A confluence of factors could make the next couple of quarters bumpy enough to give long-term investors a chance to scoop up shares of the tech juggernaut at an even cheaper price.</p>\n<p>To be sure, the long-term opportunity hasn’t changed. If oil was the crucial commodity of the past,semiconductors are the critical commodity of the future—and TSMC is a leader in making the advanced chips needed for 5G, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and electric vehicles.</p>\n<p>Founded in 1987, the Taiwanese company accounts for roughly 60% of outsourced chip manufacturing and 90% of the profits.

The company is a critical supplier to U.S. technology giants likeApple(AAPL) andQualcomm(QCOM) and Chinese companies like Huawei Technologies. TSMC’s stock is widely held across the globe, and for good reason. It has returned an annualized 29% over the past decade.\nBut TSMC shares are now caught up in a rare correction. The stock is down 15% since mid-February. Investors should avoid the temptation to buy on the dip, at least for now. A confluence of factors could make the next couple of quarters bumpy enough to give long-term investors a chance to scoop up shares of the tech juggernaut at an even cheaper price.\nTo be sure, the long-term opportunity hasn’t changed. If oil was the crucial commodity of the past,semiconductors are the critical commodity of the future—and TSMC is a leader in making the advanced chips needed for 5G, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and electric vehicles.\nFounded in 1987, the Taiwanese company accounts for roughly 60% of outsourced chip manufacturing and 90% of the profits. TSMC has made significant investment in its foundries, helping it manufacture ever-denser chips that generate more power while using less energy. RivalIntel(INTC) has struggled to match that success.\nEven the lone analyst with a Sell rating on TSMC stock sings the company’s praises: “This is an A-plus company with solid management,” says Mehdi Hosseini, senior equity analyst at Susquehanna Financial Group, who has covered TSMC for more than 20 years. But Hosseini says he can’t ignore the near-term challenges and the pricey stock.\nDespite the recent selloff, TSMC shares are still up 110% over the past 12 months, and they trade at 27 times earnings estimates for the next 12 months, well above the stock’s five-year average of 19.\nThat elevated multiple doesn’t offer much cushion if and when challenges arise. Some money managers caution that near-term demand may not live up to analysts’ rosy forecasts for the next couple of quarters. Also, increased spending by TSMC and its rivals to meet a surge in demand could dent profit margins.\nMeanwhile, escalating geopolitical tensions put Taiwan, a self-ruled democracy that China considers a province, and its most important company in a fraught position.\nDaiwa Capital Markets analyst Rick Hsu is concerned that the chip shortage—which has hobbled automotive plants and sent gamers scrambling to find new consoles—could create inventory-related issues in the first half of 2022.\nHsu toldBarron’sin an email that TSMC’s stock needs to shed another 15%, to about $100, to adequately reflect the current risk profile. The stock recently closed at $118.\nLackluster demand related to smartphones, which accounts for 45% of revenue, could also lead to disappointment. With TSMC profit margins already near a peak, future growth will require a boost in sales. That could be challenging in the near term. Apple’s iPhone 13 is unlikely to offer a major catalyst, while Chinese smartphone vendors don’t currently have the killer app needed to drive upgrades, Hosseini says.\n“You can’t just give it multiple expansion because it’s a great company. You need earnings power,” Hosseini says, noting that the company trades at a significant premium to theS&P 500 index.He has a price target of $85, putting him far outside the consensus. Wall Street’s average price target on TSMC is $141.\nAnalysts, on average, expect TSMC’s earnings to increase 14% to $4.06 a share this year, and 16% to $4.69 a share next year, with revenue growing 16% to $55.8 billion this year, and another 16% next year.\nChips on the Table\nShares of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing have returned an annual average of 25% over the last decade.\n\nIn April, TSMC CEO C.C.

Most PCs using x86 processors run Microsoft Corp.'s <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">$(MSFT)$</a> Windows operating system.</p><p>Mercury Research provides market-share data based on unit shipments. Here is its worldwide breakdown for overall x86 CPU market share for the first quarter, with comparisons to the previous and year-earlier quarters:</p><p>Intel remains the leader, but you can see that for the first quarter, AMD's market share increased tremendously from a year earlier. Then again, AMD's first-quarter share was down a bit from the previous quarter.</p><p>For graphics processing units (GPUs), AMD competes with Nvidia Corp. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">$(NVDA)$</a>.</p><p>\"In the conventional graphics market, Nvidia is dominant, but AMD is also respectably large,\" McCarron said.</p><p>According to Mercury Research, Nvidia's share in the conventional GPU market was 81%, with a 19% market share for AMD in the fourth quarter (the most recent for which unit sales data is available).</p><p>Competition for data-center GPUs is expected to heat up.

It is a useful measurement of pricing power, and a combination of high sales growth and improved gross margin is a good sign.</p><p>Intel's first-quarter gross margin narrowed, while AMD's widened.</p><p>A company's operating margin is its earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation divided by net sales. It can be considered \"return on sales.\"</p><p>When comparing the first quarter of 2021 with the year-earlier quarter, you can see a significant narrowing of Intel's operating margin and improvement for AMD's operating margin.</p><p>One advantage of Intel under CEO Pat Gelsinger, who took up his new position in February, is that Intel can spend so much more on research and development. During the first quarter, Intel spent $3.62 billion on R&amp;D, while AMD spent $610 million.</p><p>You can read more about Gelsinger's strategy and challenges here .</p><p><b>3、Free cash flow</b></p><p>A company's free cash flow <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FCF\">$(FCF)$</a> is its remaining cash flow after planned capital expenditures. A company's free cash flow yield can be calculated by dividing the past 12 months' free cash flow per share by the current share price.</p><p>This chart shows both companies have grown free cash flow over the past three full years, and that Intel has a much higher FCF yield than AMD:</p><p>Intel's FCF yield of 8.11% shows the company has plenty of \"headroom\" above its current dividend yield, which is 2.44%. (AMD doesn't pay a dividend.) So Intel is better-positioned than AMD to deploy more cash through expansion, share buybacks or dividend increases.</p><p>Intel made both the three- and five-year lists of free-cash-flow compounders, which you can see here .</p><p><b>4、Stock valuation and performance</b></p><p>Here are forward price-to-earnings ratios based on consensus earnings estimates for the next 12 months among analysts polled by FactSet, along with total return figures:</p><p>Intel has shined this year, as AMD has pulled back. Intel is also far cheaper when you look at forward price-to-earnings ratios.

In comparison, forward P/Es are 21.5 for the S&amp;P 500 Index , 27 for the Invesco QQQ Trust <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/QQQ\">$(QQQ)$</a> (which tracks the Nasdaq-100 Index) and 20.3 for the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EEME\">iShares</a> PHLX Semiconductor ETF <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SOXX\">$(SOXX)$</a>.</p><p>If you review longer periods, AMD has been the clear outperformer, until you look at the 15-year figures.</p><p>These companies have been competing for the PC CPU market for decades.

Intel's stock is cheaply priced to expected earnings, the company has a new CEO with a new strategy and is trying to move into new areas. Competition for Intel and AMD with Nvidia in the data-center space will be hot -- it is a story that will take years to unfold.</p><p>Intel has been a tremendous free-cash-flow grower over the long term, as you can see here .
