Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE:TSM | TSM Price Prediction) has been one of the defining AI infrastructure trades of the past year, and after a sharp 9.42% pullback in the past week, the question is whether the rally still has legs. Our 24/7 Wall St. price target for TSM is $502.60, implying meaningful upside from current levels. Here is how we got there.
The 24/7 Wall St. Price Target for TSM
TSM currently trades at $432.57 after a volatile stretch. Based on our proprietary model, the 24/7 Wall St. price target is $502.60 over the next 12 months, pointing to 16.19% upside. Our confidence sits at 90%, high by our standards, reflecting overwhelming analyst alignment and durable AI-driven earnings momentum.

A Sharp Pullback Inside a Blistering Year
The past week has been rough, with TSM losing 9.42% after brushing the 52-week high of $479. Zoom out, though, and the story flips: TSM is up 43.06% year-to-date and 90.79% over the past year. Fundamentals justify the run.
May 2026 monthly revenue hit NT$416.98 billion, up 30.1% year over year, and CEO C.C. Wei has signaled full-year 2026 revenue growth close to 30% in USD terms. Q4 2025 delivered EPS of $3.14 versus $2.98 expected, with gross margin of 62.3%, exceeding guidance.
The Case for $550+
TSMC sits at the choke point of the AI hardware buildout. High Performance Computing was Q3 2025’s dominant segment at NT$558.59 billion, and advanced nodes (7nm and below) now generate 77% of wafer revenue, with 3nm alone at 28%. Long-term targets call for a 25% revenue CAGR through 2029 and ROE in the high-20s%.
Bank of America maintains a Buy citing cloud AI demand stretching into 2026. Polymarket traders are assigning 94% probability to a Q2 earnings beat. If forward EPS re-rates toward $15 on continued node upgrades, a 37x multiple gets us above $555 in a bull scenario.
The Risks Worth Watching
TSM carries real vulnerabilities. Customer concentration is high, with top 10 customers representing 85% of accounts receivable. Geopolitical risk around Taiwan remains the perennial overhang, and capex is climbing to $52 to $56 billion in 2026, drawing scrutiny.
Insider activity currently skews toward net selling across 76 recent transactions, though bulls would argue this reflects routine portfolio rebalancing rather than a fundamental warning given how much the stock has appreciated. If AI capex digestion begins in late 2026, a bear scenario compresses forward P/E toward 24x, dragging TSM near $425.
TSM Price Prediction 2026-2030
My verdict is a buy with 90% confidence and a 24/7 Wall St. price target of $502.60. The tipping factor is the combination of 35.1% revenue growth and a forward P/E of only 28, which is reasonable for a company compounding at this rate.
The bull case rests on AI infrastructure spending holding through 2027. The bear case is a hyperscaler capex reset in the next two quarters.
Looking further ahead, here is where our model projects TSM could trade, assuming current growth trajectories and margin discipline hold.
| Year | 24/7 Wall St. Price Target |
|---|---|
| 2026 | $502.60 |
| 2027 | $580 |
| 2028 | $650 |
| 2029 | $720 |
| 2030 | $790 |
These projections assume TSMC continues executing on advanced node ramps and its global fab expansion. Significant upside or downside could result from a Taiwan Strait geopolitical event or a sharp reset in AI infrastructure spending.
