Fed's Rate Hike: 19-Year High Triggers Chip Sector and Rare Earth Conflict Concerns

U.S. borrowing costs have hit a 19-year high as the Federal Reserve defies inflation fears. The unexpected move is shaking markets, with potential ripple effects on Nvidia and TSMC—key players in the chip industry. The China-U.S. rare earth elements conflict is also intensifying supply chain risks. ASML machine prices are rising, while Samsung and Intel face cost pressures. This Fed decision could reshape global market dynamics. Will the chip crisis enter a new phase?
