Baron Funds, an investment management company, released its investor letter for Q2 2025. Here is what the fund said:

“Our largest add during the quarter was Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (NYSE:TSM) as we continued to build our position. We believe that while near-term uncertainty due to tariffs and macro remains heightened, TSMC’s competitive positioning in leading-edge semiconductor manufacturing remains unmatched. We also believe that TSMC will benefit from a long duration of growth as the adoption of AI proliferates across industries – and the recent developments in the space which we discussed above (e.g. removal of the AI Diffusion rule, accelerated adoption of reasoning-based AI inference, and the expansion of scaling laws) will serve to further accelerate the adoption of AI. We also like the fact that TSMC will benefit regardless of the ultimate market share split between GPUs and application-specific integrated circuits. It’s the ultimate “arms dealer” to AI.”
