Michael McCaul (R-Texas). The act called for the U.S. to boost its subsidies for domestic chipmakers to address the global chip shortage, reduce the country&#39;s dependence on Asian chip foundries, and stay ahead of China in the semiconductor race.</p><p>The CHIPS Act would provide $52 billion in subsidies and tax breaks for domestic chipmakers. But more than two years later, it still hasn&#39;t passed Congress. The Senate recently cleared the way toward a final vote on the bill next week, but some Republicans are still reportedly reluctant to approve those high subsidies. Some chipmakers have also pointed out that the act favors integrated device manufacturers, which produce their own chips, over &#34;fabless&#34; chipmakers, which outsource manufacturing to third-party foundries.</p><p>All that noise can make it difficult to figure out exactly which chipmakers would benefit from the passage of the CHIPS Act. So today, I&#39;ll highlight three chip stocks that could rally the most if it&#39;s approved.</p><h2>1. Intel</h2><p><b>Intel</b> is an integrated device manufacturer that still produces most of its chips, but over the past decade, it fell behind <b>Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing</b>(also known as TSMC) in the &#34;process race&#34; to create smaller and denser chips. Intel lost its crown as it struggled with R&amp;D blunders, manufacturing mishaps, chip shortages, and delays. TSMC also started installing <b>ASML Holding</b>&#39;s top-tier extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography systems -- which etch circuit patterns into the world&#39;s most advanced chips -- long before Intel did.</p><p>As a result, Intel is now approximately one to two chip generations behind TSMC. TSMC plans to boost its capital expenditures from 2021&#39;s $30 billion to a historic high of $40 billion in 2022 to maintain that lead. Intel can only afford to increase its capital expenditures to $27 billion this year -- yet it claims it can catch up to TSMC in the process race by 2025.</p><p>That&#39;s why Intel has been aggressively lobbying for the approval of the CHIPS Act. As the country&#39;s largest chipmaker, it believes it can secure a large portion of those subsidies, allowing it to close its spending gap with TSMC.

Michael McCaul (R-Texas). The act called for the U.S. to boost its subsidies for domestic chipmakers to address the global chip shortage, reduce the country's dependence on Asian chip foundries, and stay ahead of China in the semiconductor race.The CHIPS Act would provide $52 billion in subsidies and tax breaks for domestic chipmakers. But more than two years later, it still hasn't passed Congress. The Senate recently cleared the way toward a final vote on the bill next week, but some Republicans are still reportedly reluctant to approve those high subsidies. Some chipmakers have also pointed out that the act favors integrated device manufacturers, which produce their own chips, over \"fabless\" chipmakers, which outsource manufacturing to third-party foundries.All that noise can make it difficult to figure out exactly which chipmakers would benefit from the passage of the CHIPS Act. So today, I'll highlight three chip stocks that could rally the most if it's approved.1. IntelIntel is an integrated device manufacturer that still produces most of its chips, but over the past decade, it fell behind Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(also known as TSMC) in the \"process race\" to create smaller and denser chips. Intel lost its crown as it struggled with R&D blunders, manufacturing mishaps, chip shortages, and delays. TSMC also started installing ASML Holding's top-tier extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography systems -- which etch circuit patterns into the world's most advanced chips -- long before Intel did.As a result, Intel is now approximately one to two chip generations behind TSMC. TSMC plans to boost its capital expenditures from 2021's $30 billion to a historic high of $40 billion in 2022 to maintain that lead. Intel can only afford to increase its capital expenditures to $27 billion this year -- yet it claims it can catch up to TSMC in the process race by 2025.That's why Intel has been aggressively lobbying for the approval of the CHIPS Act. As the country's largest chipmaker, it believes it can secure a large portion of those subsidies, allowing it to close its spending gap with TSMC. It also plans to open up its domestic foundries to fabless chipmakers, which could help it challenge TSMC in the third-party contract chipmaking market.2.
