In addition to Apple's A-series and M-series chips, isn't TSMC the only company shipping 5nm and on pace to be the first to ship 3nm chips? And they provide chips to a lot more than just Apple... I'm thinking if this came to pass we it would be the start of a far more profound chip shortage that would make the previous one look like a minor inconvenience.

Pretty sure they supply to Lockheed as well. Wonder how they'd react to such a move.

idk man...if Apple stops producing phones tomorrow morning I can't see it effecting anyone too much. Apple shareholders don't count.
