What happened
During a campaign stop in Arizona, Donald Trump promoted the US manufacturing sector, claiming the US would achieve 50% of the world’s chips following Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company's $265 billion investment in Arizona. Trump also cited GlobalFoundries expanding with a $21 billion investment in upstate New York and noted that drug makers like Eli Lilly, Merck, and Pfizer were reshoring production to the US. Separately, Trump pledged a swift end to the war with Iran to bring down prices.

Why it matters
The statements highlight significant private capital flowing into US manufacturing, particularly in the semiconductor and pharmaceutical sectors. The investments, such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company’s $200 billion expansion in Phoenix, signal major shifts in global supply chains and industrial investment within Arizona. These announcements are framed against concerns over inflation driven by geopolitical conflict.
