America’s Big Chipmaking Blunder

ASML is behind what's arguably the
most important technology in the
world right now: extreme ultraviolet
lithography machines. Without these
$200 million EUV machines and the
semiconductors they make, there'd be
no artificial intelligence revolution and
the global economy would begin to
slow. While the machines made in the
Netherlands are sold mostly to
companies in Taiwan and South Korea
TSMC and Samsung - Intel was very
late to the game. The US government
meanwhile under both Donald Trump
and Joe Biden has been scrambling to
ensure none of the machines are sold to
China.
