Semiconductors

Semiconductor fabs are among the most capital-intensive industrial facilities ever built — typically $10–$30B per leading-edge plant — and they take 3–5 years from groundbreaking to first wafer. The CHIPS & Science Act of 2022 catalyzed a US fab-construction cycle not seen in a generation, reversing decades of offshore concentration in Taiwan, South Korea, and China. Projects of this scale anchor regional economies for 30+ years and pull tens of thousands of supply-chain jobs alongside direct employment.
