01What it rests on, and what rests on it

each row quotes the page it rests on

Depends on

  • Leading-edge foundry capacity
    “We utilize Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC) for the production of wafers for our HPC, FPGA and adaptive SoC products”

    sec.gov · primary source · The filing names the foundry, not the node.

A recorded dependency is a sentence, not a share, a volume or a contract. Walk it on a portfolio →

02SEC filings

04Ways to take part

how to reach it, not whether to

Not investment advice. This says how the public can reach a company — a job, its shares, its products — not whether anyone should. It takes no account of anyone’s circumstances, and a company holding a chokepoint is not a reason to own it. What this is not

06What this holds up

3 loops

A loop is one design, build and measure turn. Severity is a dated judgement on a 0–12 scale, not a measurement, and the judgements are not added together — the figure shown is the worst single one.
