This is how Nvidia captured a significant portion of the AI computing market, delivering substantial gains to its shareholders.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">So, when Jensen Huang calls a company&#8217;s stock a &#8220;very smart buy,&#8221; investors should listen up.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">What company was Huang talking about when he mentioned this? It&#8217;s none other than a key Nvidia supplier, <strong>Taiwan Semiconductor <\/strong>(NYSE: TSM).<\/p>\n<p>    <img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/ywAAAAAAQABAAACAUwAOw==\" alt=\"Person holding a chip to inspect it.\" loading=\"eager\" height=\"640\" width=\"960\" class=\"yf-1gfnohs loader\"\/> Image source: Getty Images.         <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">During a visit to TSMC, Jensen Huang stated:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"neo-blockquote yf-1ba2ufg\">\n<p class=\"yf-1ba2ufg\">Well, first of all, I think TSMC is one of the greatest companies in the history of humanity, and anybody who wants to buy TSMC stock is a very smart person.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">That&#8217;s huge praise from the man who leads and founded the world&#8217;s largest company. But is he right?<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Taiwan Semiconductor, widely known as TSMC, is in a strong and unique position in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/investing\/stock-market\/market-sectors\/information-technology\/semiconductor-stocks\/microchip-stocks\/?utm_source=yahoo-host-full&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=article&amp;referring_guid=055d7a79-a65a-4c2e-a8ec-dfce4de853f3\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:chip world;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">chip world<\/a>. It&#8217;s a semiconductor foundry that produces chips for companies like Nvidia that lack the in-house capabilities to do it themselves. This fosters a strong working relationship, as they each depend on one another. Nvidia isn&#8217;t the only company that uses TSMC; others, such as <strong>AMD <\/strong>(NASDAQ: AMD) and <strong>Apple <\/strong>(NASDAQ: AAPL), do also.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">This raises a key point about TSMC: It often produces chips for companies that are competing against each other. AMD and Nvidia are vying for supremacy in AI computing power, and Apple&#8217;s iPhones are competing against Google&#8217;s Pixel phones, which have just started using TSMC-made chips. With TSMC remaining neutral and acting only as a supplier to companies battling it out, it&#8217;s in a position to capitalize on several key trends without needing to develop the winning product.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">As long as TSMC can stay on top with the technology it offers, it will maintain its market leadership position.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">By the end of the year, TSMC&#8217;s next chip node, the 2nm (nanometer) chip, will be in production. This chip offers substantially better power consumption (25% to 30% improvement) compared to the 3nm variety when configured at the same speed. While concern grows about the power consumption of AI data centers, this innovation is expected to be a massive hit among tech companies. Additionally, TSMC has 1.6nm and 1.4nm designs in the pipeline, which are expected to offer similar power consumption improvements.<\/p>\n<p> Story Continues <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Clearly, TSMC is one of the world&#8217;s most innovative companies, and the successes of many tech giants can be traced back to it. But is it a smart buy now?<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Taiwan Semiconductor has put up jaw-dropping growth in recent quarters, with Q2&#8217;s revenue rising 44% year over year in U.S. dollars. That makes it one of the fastest-growing big tech stocks, trailing only Nvidia. Despite that, the market hasn&#8217;t placed a premium valuation on TSMC&#8217;s stock, as it only trades for 24 times forward earnings.<\/p>\n<p>  <a href=\"https:\/\/ycharts.com\/companies\/TSM\/chart\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/ywAAAAAAQABAAACAUwAOw==\" alt=\"TSM PE Ratio (Forward) Chart\" loading=\"lazy\" height=\"441\" width=\"720\" class=\"yf-1gfnohs loader\"\/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/ycharts.com\/companies\/TSM\/forward_pe_ratio\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:TSM PE Ratio (Forward);elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">TSM PE Ratio (Forward)<\/a> data by <a href=\"https:\/\/ycharts.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:YCharts;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">YCharts<\/a>    <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Considering that the <strong>S&amp;P 500 <\/strong>(SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) trades for 23.7 times forward earnings, this indicates TSMC is valued about the same as an average S&amp;P 500 stock. With its key position in the AI arms race, as well as its growth, I think this is a huge bargain. Therefore, Jensen Huang&#8217;s statement about how smart people are buying TSMC stock is absolutely correct.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">I think Taiwan Semiconductor is one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/investing\/2025\/08\/25\/3-phenomenal-artificial-intelligence-ai-stocks-to\/?utm_source=yahoo-host-full&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=article&amp;referring_guid=055d7a79-a65a-4c2e-a8ec-dfce4de853f3\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:top AI stocks;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">top AI stocks<\/a> to buy now, as the AI arms race spending spree is still going strong.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Before you buy stock in Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, consider this:<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/api.fool.com\/infotron\/infotrack\/click?apikey=35527423-a535-4519-a07f-20014582e03e&amp;impression=66d24b8c-8bc2-4836-a2c8-18d1276760dd&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fool.com%2Fmms%2Fmark%2Fe-sa-bbn-bn%3Faid%3D8867%26source%3Disaeditxt0001088%26ftm_cam%3Dsa-bbn-evergreen%26ftm_veh%3Darticle_pitch_feed_yahoo%26ftm_pit%3D17500&amp;utm_source=yahoo-host-full&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=article&amp;referring_guid=055d7a79-a65a-4c2e-a8ec-dfce4de853f3\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:10 best stocks;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">10 best stocks<\/a><\/strong> for investors to buy now\u2026 and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing wasn\u2019t one of them.
