Summary · why it matters

Amkor and Himax shares fell sharply in afternoon trading after TSMC raised its capital expenditure guidance, triggering a broader semiconductor selloff. TSMC increased its 2026 capex outlook to $60–$64 billion from a prior ceiling of $56 billion, despite reporting record profits and raising its full-year revenue growth forecast to slightly above 40%. The higher spending plan shifted investor focus to free cash flow compression and margin dilution, with management guiding third-quarter operating margins about 70 basis points below consensus and warning that overseas expansion and 2-nanometer ramp costs would pressure gross margins in the second half. Amkor dropped 5.9% and Himax fell 6% as the market reassessed the cost of scaling AI manufacturing capacity across the sector.
