Wistron shares surge in Taiwan after opening of Texas AI superchip plant to supply Nvidia
Taiwan-based Wistron Corporation shares jumped 9.7% on Wednesday after the company announced the opening of its first U.S. facility in Fort Worth, Texas. The $700 million, 324,000-square-foot D1 AI smart facility currently produces Nvidia's GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Superchip and will later expand to produce Nvidia's Vera Rubin Superchip, critical for next-generation AI computing. Wistron Chairman Simon Lin stated the location will be one of the most important for building AI infrastructure in the United States. The move follows TSMC's recent announcement of expanded investment in Arizona, highlighting a broader trend of Taiwanese tech giants expanding U.S. operations. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang emphasized that demand for AI factories is incredible and must be produced everywhere. Nvidia's partner manufacturing facilities span 43 U.S. states, contributing an estimated $485 billion to U.S. GDP in 2026.
