GlobalFoundries Inc. (NASDAQ: GFS) saw its stock climb nearly 7% on Thursday, bucking the downtrend affecting other key players in the semiconductor industry. This increase came amid potential new US restrictions on chip supplies to China, which could negatively impact major competitors like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC) and NVIDIA Corp. These potential restrictions, stemming from the administration of US President Joe Biden, could limit TSMC and NVIDIA’s business operations in China, creating an advantageous position for GlobalFoundries.

Despite having approximately half the gross margin of TSMC, GlobalFoundries might benefit significantly from these geopolitical shifts. If competitors face restrictions, GlobalFoundries could leverage the situation to raise prices and improve its margins, potentially altering its competitive standing.
