The biggest contributors are WFH demand, more PC gaming, but especially crypto mining and release of new consoles.

Mining and the new consoles take tons of silicon. And everybody is competing for the same fabs.

Supply chain problems and tariffs aren't doing much (if anything). Fabs run 24/7 365 and we just can't make enough chips
