china isnt going to be realistically be able to take the island, and the chip factory, because those factories would likely be destroyed prior to china trying invade,
Comment on The Value of NVIDIA Now Exceeds an Unprecedented 16% of U.S. GDP

Nvidia doesn’t make GPUs. TSMC does.
Nvida just sends them their design specs.
Apple, Google, Nvidia, etc. - all TSMC in Taiwan. A country that China would love to occupy given a good motivator.

They don’t need any additional motivation at this point, generations of mainland Chinese have been brainwashed into believing that Taiwan is their land, despite that not being the case for centuries.
All they need is an opportunity to open up, where western militaries are occupied elsewhere, such as Europe after a Russian attack on NATO, the US gets pulled in to the Middle East again or the South American war crimes that Trump is doing becomes a much larger war. As soon as they think nobody will come to Taiwan’s aid they will invade.

And Taiwan is set to blow their chip factories if invaded. Not an official policy, but it’s a no-brainer.
