Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

Nvidia's CEO, Jensen Huang, noted that supply is the tightest constraint on the company, stating Nvidia can only fill about 70% of current demand. The government support for these U.S. industrial parks aims to change that supply equation for Nvidia and TSMC.
