Latest news is that Intel's 7nm is doing quite well, and is on track to start high volume manufacturing in 2h 2019. And given that Intel 10nm is roughly comparable to TSMC 7nm, it's certainly possible that Intel will regain their process advantage very soon.

There are caveats in the above statement, but I certainly wouldn't bet against Intel.

This was the very first time I ever heard of this. Do you happen to have a source?

I think parent typo'ed. Latest news is volume production for Intel 10nm (~ TSMC 7nm) in 2H19.

You've quoted a press releas by Intel on how Intel is awesome and there is no problem and everything is peachy.

Not the most trustworthy source of info, I may say.

Press releases are material statements; if Intel is lying or being unrealistically optimistic then investors can sue them and likely win.

I got a bridge to sell you if you think press releases are reliable sources of information.
