Insiders: TSMC's advanced process will increase in price. The price of 2nm process wafers will increase by 10%.

According to informed sources, TSMC plans to soon raise the prices of one of its advanced manufacturing nodes. The sources said that in the coming weeks, wafer prices will further soar, mainly due to the rising costs of building wafer factories overseas such as in the United States, and the need to recoup its capital expenditure plan of $38 to $42 billion this year. The price of TSMC's 2nm process wafers will increase by 10% compared to before, with last year's estimated price of 300mm wafers being $30,000, and the new pricing will be around $33,000. Additionally, this global wafer foundry will increase the prices of its 4-nanometer manufacturing node by 10%, potentially up to 30%.
