Here is what Wedgewood Partners specifically said about Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (NYSE:TSM) in its Q3 2022 investor letter:

"Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (NYSE:TSM) detracted from performance despite business performance that saw revenue growth accelerate to over +40% growth (in TWD) and lapped +20% revenue growth from a year ago. The Company is one of the few fabs in the world that is capable of manufacturing leading-edge integrated circuits (IC). TSM’s leading edge capacity is being absorbed by high-performance computing applications, particularly in the case of Apple, which has become an IC powerhouse over the past decade. The Company’s aggressive investment in leading-edge equipment, tight development with fabless IC designers and embrace of open development libraries, should continue to foster a superior competitive position and attractive long-term growth."
