They've also appointed a new CEO, who focuses on unexplored technology segments, which means they can take control of a particular segment. 
United Microelectronics Corp. (UMC)They are better known as a Semiconductor Microchips Manufacturer, but they aren't the biggest. They are in second place, just behind Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, which automatically puts UMC stocks on the cheaper spectrum. So, why would you invest? Here's the catch:
TAM has just experienced a chip shortage that's going to last until at least 2023. With the current demand for smartphones, TVs, and consoles, this is the right time for UMC to rise high above TSM.
In the EndBoth of these companies are my choices and my ideas of the future market. My advice is, invest only in what you have researched, trust your gut, and don't bail out fast.
