Five listed chip firms equaled 156.2% of Taiwan’s implied gross domestic product in 2025.
This statistic shows how much Taiwan’s equity market is concentrated in semiconductor-linked firms. The five selected listed chip firms together exceeded Taiwan’s preliminary gross domestic product (GDP) in market value at end-2025. TSMC alone was about 140% of the implied GDP base. The result is a stock-market scale comparison, not a measure of economic output.
