While ASML stock won’t mirror GPU-like upside in a single year, it can compound through cycles as fabs standardize on EUV/High-NA and as installed base services scale with wafer starts and uptime requirements. Sources: ASML investor materials; industry coverage from SEMI and major sell-side research. Industry proposals such as the $55 billion “Terafab” concept aim to massively scale wafer capacity for AI-era demand, positioning EUV and High-NA at the center.
On the other hand, SpaceX and Blue Origin are going at it alone — the two companies are competitors, and it doesn’t look like they’re cooperating with each other to develop the technologies required for space-based AI compute. It even seems that the former is intent on vertical integration, with its new 11-million-square-foot (around 190 to 200 football fields) Gigasat factory and Musk’s TeraFab megaproject.

Meanwhile, Tesla has ramped up its Terafab efforts following its partnership with Intel Corp. (INTC) announced earlier this month. The company is currently hiring for 9 positions in Taiwan, seeking candidates with more than 5 years of experience in advanced chipmaking processes. This includes candidates with experience in 7-nanometer and below fabrication processes, while one of the roles requires experience with advanced packaging flows.
UBS is looking for TSMC to lay out its capital spending roadmap in more detail during the July 16 earnings call. The bank also wants to hear how management plans to respond to growing competition from Samsung Foundry, Intel, and a newer entrant, Terafab.
The brokerage expects TSMC to provide more insight on its capex plans during its Q2 earnings call, and also expects the company to address concerns over potential competition from rivals such as Samsung Foundry, Intel, and Terafab.
UBS expects TSMC to provide more details on its spending plans in the upcoming earnings call and address competition from rivals such as Samsung (SSNLF), Intel (INTC), and Terafab.
UBS analysts are expecting TSMC to provide comprehensive details regarding its capital expenditure strategy during the July 16 earnings conference call.

The same export-control mechanism that caps SMIC also protects TSMC’s leading-edge share, and SMIC erodes only China-market mature-node demand (China is already down to 9% of revenue). Customer in-housing of design (Google TPU, AWS Trainium, Microsoft Maia) actually helps TSMC by diversifying its base, since all of it still fabs at TSMC. In-housing of manufacturing (Tesla “Terafab”) is years away and capital-prohibitive.

One of the biggest moves electric vehicle giant Tesla (TSLA) has made in recent history was to establish the Terafab operation, backed up by Intel (INTC). While not all of the specifics are clear about this new project, it is clear that Tesla is taking it seriously.
The applications were filed under Terafab AI, LLC with both Anderson-Shiro and Iola, with four phases listed for each district. In Anderson-Shiro, the filings list about $10.37 billion in eligible investment for Phase 1, followed by $23.84 billion for each of phases 2 through 4, and 617 permanent jobs.
Early this year, SpaceX acquired xAI, his artificial intelligence startup, which is now working with Tesla Inc. and SpaceX on a massive computer chip-making facility Musk has dubbed Terafab.
In seiner neuen Position wird er eine zentrale Rolle beim Aufbau und der Skalierung von Teslas geplanter Terafab in Austin übernehmen – einer hochautomatisierten Fabrik für die Produktion von KI-Hardware der nächsten Generation.
The analyst commented that potential Terafab could provide further visibility for the company’s outlook. According to InvestingPro Tips, ASML remains a prominent player in the Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment industry, with 16 additional tips available to subscribers alongside ...
The company only generated $19 billion in revenue last year and reported a net loss of $4.9 billion, making its current valuation based entirely on hopes for the success of future bets, like its plans to put data centers in orbit, to churn out AI processors at its Terafab plant, or position its Starlink satellite internet service to replace traditional mobile carriers.
On costs, they believe SpaceX can achieve “industry‑leading compute cost and time‑to‑power, first through terrestrial compute and vertical integration, and longer term through orbital compute as a meaningful driver of lower cost per watt.” A large portion of capex is directed towards Terafab, Solarfab and other vertical integration efforts, including blade/vane foundry and terrestrial communications infrastructure, to push infrastructure capex to roughly $4–$5 per watt (excluding chips), versus
A gigawatt of orbital AI needs roughly 100-130 Starship launches at ~7 MW per launch. AI satellite deployments could start as early as Q1-Q2 next year and with Tesla AI5 chips hitting volume production mid-next-year and a Terafab (100M sq ft) targeting terawatt-per-year output long-term.
