The CHIP Act seeks to counter Chinas rise in advanced technology in the name of strengthening US competitiveness and protecting national security. This spending measure would provide $280 billion in science and technology funding, $52 billion of which would be used to boost U.S. semiconductor manufacturing. Chipmakers will not be able to produce highend chips larger than 28 nanometers in China for 10 years. The US Congress passed the Chips Act, which allows chipmakers to deduct 25% of the cost of a new factory or factories from the first years profits. The bill, which has yet to be signed into law, would give chipmakers an additional $24 billion in tax credits. Most of the federal subsidies are expected to go to Intel, TSMC and Samsung. In South Korea, they are all now building tens of billions of dollars worth of chip manufacturing facilities in the United States. Read More..
