Major chipmakers like <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">AMD</a></b>, <b>NVIDIA</b>, and <b>Apple</b> (NASDAQ: AAPL) all rely on TSMC to produce their smallest and most powerful chips.

Shares of TSMC and ASML have more than doubled over the past 12 months amid surging chip sales, and the ongoing global chip shortage could propel both stocks even higher. But which stock is the better overall investment right now?</p><h2>The symbiotic relationship between TSMC and ASML</h2><p>ASML generated 34% of its revenue from Taiwan last year. Its largest customer was TSMC, which accounted for 31% of its top line.</p><p>TSMC uses ASML's newest multi-patterning EUV machines to manufacture its newest 5nm and 7nm chips.

Its main rival, <b>Samsung</b>, and other South Korean chipmakers could also increase their average capex by over 20% this year.</p><p>A lot of that cash could be spent on ASML's EUV machines.

In terms of end markets, it generated 48% of its sales from the smartphone market, 33% from the HPC (high-performance computing market), and the rest from other industries.</p><p>TSMC's largest customer is Apple, which likely accounted for 25% of its revenue last year.

Analysts expect its revenue and earnings to rise 21% and 16%, respectively, in USD terms this year. The global chip shortage should consistently drive its revenue growth, but its higher capex could squeeze its margins.</p><p>ASML generated 43% of its total system revenue from its top-tier EUV systems in 2020. The segment's revenue rose 59% during the year as the world's top foundries upgraded their hardware. It shipped its 100th EUV system in the fourth quarter, and 26 million wafers had been exposed to its EUV machines by the end of the year.</p><p>ASML's gross margins have consistently expanded over the past several years as it sells its newer systems at ever-higher margins. As a result, its revenue and net income rose 18% and 37%, respectively, in 2020.
