Apple diversifies chip supply away from TSMC to Intel, reducing TSMC's revenue concentration risk and giving Intel a marquee customer. The channel is supply_shortage (TSMC capacity constraints) leading to a second-source strategy. Impact is global but concentrated in the semiconductor supply chain. Winners: Intel (foundry revenue, capacity utilization). Losers: TSMC (potential volume loss, pricing power erosion).
