see 10-20% price cuts due to Chinese competition

capacity glut, reported the Commercial Times. In anticipation of this surge in
capacity, industry insiders said that Taiwanese wafer foundries are preparing
for a price war with China's Hua Hong Semiconductor and South Korea's Key
Foundry by slashing prices by 10% to 20% in the first quarter of 2024.
