Despite temporary geopolitical calm, tightening U.S. export controls and high supply chain concentration in Taiwan, China will push compliance costs up by over 15% within a year.

Over the next 24 months, debt-fueled scale advantages will entrench a ‘winner-takes-most’ dynamic: only firms with ecosystem lock-in and cash flow stability will afford leading-edge nodes, forcing less-integrated players out of the advanced semiconductor race.
