Did you know that 75%+ of the world’s neon is used in semi mfg? Did you know that Ukraine is a key source for the purified gas? Neither did we, but we spent the weekend learning about a potential new semi supply chain risk (institutional clients only):

Here's a wild thing that @WillyShih_atHBS talked about on our latest episode about chips. The insane yield math of semiconductor production. How good your production quality has to be at every single step in order to get a return on your investment

Yesterday CA released 2020 autonomous vehicle disengagement report data. While the companies in question mostly hate these reports, there are some trends in the data worthy of discussion, in particular a clear power law dependence w/ more miles driven correlated to performance.

There is not much the US gov can do to combat shortages (which have nothing to do with the state of US semi investment, political rhetoric not withstanding). For some context, auto semis (where shortages are rampant) are a $40B+ market; in contrast TSMC’s auto revs are ~$1B (2/4)

Current semiconductor policy initiatives being discussed are a start, but are relatively small (~$25-$30B or so) and so far have no actual funding attached yet.
