Retail investors swarmed in to buy TSMC as the AI trading boom returned.

With the strong comeback of AI trading, retail investors rushed to buy, driving the stock price of TSMC to hit a historic high this week. The world's largest chipmaker saw its stock price reach a new high this week, erasing its losses since the outbreak of the Iran war. TSMC's stock price fell on Thursday, dropping by 1.2% at one point. Although TSMC's ownership structure is still dominated by institutional investors, with the increasing number of retail investors, their influence is also growing. The number of "odd lot" holders of TSMC has increased by about 30% since the end of February, reaching a record high of over 2 million.
