EAT SH*T THEN DIE. BYE.

estimate of lost at 10% monthly production. No lost of life.

We need to star asking ourself : What can we do to help.

GO TO HELL !!
GUN!!!

Don't lie to yourself.

<<Who cares
about the people who live there! The only question is
will my shares lose value tomorrow!!!!



Shit, for all I care, every piece of the country can be
destroyed, but as long as TSM keeps rollin' I'm
happy!

Self-interest is king!

You people make me
sick.

My original post was one of satire. The whole
point of the post was to show you people that the fate
of TSM was insignificant compared to the human toll
which the earthquake cause.

The posters on this
board who were worried about the factories and wafers
were the ones who made me sick.

It really
doesn't surprise me, though, that you simpletons
misinterpreted my post.

in the long run,tsm is a good stock to hold
when $ weaken,US growth slowing down(vanguard US growth is a
good measurement)

As long as there is not sever damage to tsm factory,it's fine

here is a cut from the Smartmoney article and it
does not sound so bad. The price is holding up fairly
well and I stuck an order in to buy at 28 1/2 just in
case but I was dreaming. It very well may be a time to
buy the stock at 30. Personally, what the analysts'
say very often is for their own benefits. An analyst
can make a dire statement about a company after a
natural disaster and not have to worry that he is scaring
investors. In a couple of weeks they will make their
amends.
to the gent in Taiwan........I fully understand your
situation. I have had 5 major hurricanes pass within 10
miles of my home in the last 36 months.


Both
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSM), the
world's largest dedicated chip foundry, and
United
Microelectronics Corp., the island's second-biggest chipmaker,
said a full assessment is difficult at
this stage,
a view shared by those in the securities industry.


"Anything at this point is speculation," said
Doug Lee, an electronics analyst at Goldman Sachs in
Hong
Kong. "I don't think it'll be catastrophic, but
it's hard to determine."

Ironically, any halt
to production at Taiwan's chip makers will add fresh
impetus to already-soaring DRAM
memory chip prices,
analysts said.

While the island's memory chip
makers currently account for just 10% to 12% of global
DRAM output, a
halt to production for just one or
two days will be enough to tighten supply, analysts
and traders said.

Coming at a time when
demand is outstripping supply and computer companies are
gearing up for the
peak season, analysts said they
expect DRAM prices to shoot up sharply over the coming
days.
