AI-driven demand displaces mature node capacity, triggering price hikes across 8-inch and 12-inch foundry that could last through 2027.

Key Highlights

8-inch Tightens First: Utilization touch 90% in 2H26; power-related lines hit hardest, with pricing up across the board by 1H26.
12-inch Follows Suit: TSMC cutbacks and PSMC fab sale trigger order shifts; AI applications like interposers and PIC consume capacity.
Mix Optimization Accelerates: Fabs exit low-margin HV and CIS lines, pivoting to PMIC, power discrete, and optical components.
Consumer Risk Emerging: High component costs weigh on shipments; front-loaded TV and notebook stocking raises 2H26 inventory concerns.
