The White House has said it won't aim to take a stake in companies like Taiwanese chip giant TSMC and Micron that are increasing investments in the U.S. The Wall Street Journal reported that TSMC had discussed giving back some of its U.S. CHIPS Act funding if Washington pushed to become a shareholder. The U.S. government has confirmed it will take a 10% stake in chipmaker Intel, and it's hinted at similar deals with other grant recipients.
