Taiwan’s semiconductor industry resumes operations after deadly earthquake

Taiwan’s semiconductor industry restarted operations and emergency personnel worked to help injured and trapped citizens as the island begins to recover from its worst earthquake in 25 years.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. expects its most advanced factory to reach full recovery later on Thursday, after it earlier evacuated staff and halted operations. That facility, located in the southern Taiwanese city of Tainan, is the leading producer of advanced chips for Apple Inc. and Nvidia Corp.
