my NVDA position losing the race with my TSM position
and the NVDA position is like 6x the size
help

AVGO, TSM, GOOG, and MSFT

That's why rumors are only rumors and short term investing is perilous. It's better to look at say Foxconn earnings or TSM earnings or sales report...which by the way is out late thursday west coast time...10ish? They had increases over the two months indicating 24% increase in sales year over year. Demand is high as usual but they are having a hard time meeting demand as usual ==> no bubble.

I'd spread it out amongst aristocrats, kings, those w/ a high CAGR (for its div), and some quality growth. For instance: VZ, MO, ABBV, ORI, XOM, COST, NVDA, ASML, TSM, and MSFT.

TSM is currently paying high premium compares to their Taiwanese counterpart.

100%, that's the discount you're paid for. It's why TSM still trades below its AI peers despite outgrowing most of them, the Taiwan discount has narrowed since the days Buffett bought and dumped it over exactly this fear, but it's still in the multiple. You're getting paid to hold it.
And honestly, if China actually moves on Taiwan, there's no hiding in the rest of the market anyway. Apple, Nvidia, AMD, half the S&P's earnings run through TSMC fabs. SPY doesn't dodge that bullet, it just gets shot slower. It's systemic risk wearing a single-ticker costume.
Meanwhile they're de-risking it in real time. Arizona fabs are producing, Japan's running, Germany's building. Not fast enough to matter in an invasion scenario, but enough that the "one island" story gets weaker every year. I'll take a priced-in risk over an unpriced one.

Probably could do better but you get the idea.

Tae-won is very similar to Taiwan. Calls on TSM

The main differences to an index like the S&P500 is that you have reduced your top 10 weighting from around 35-40% to 15.72%. The top 20 in your portfolio is 23.64%. Lots of dispersed weightings. +35% in technology and tech as a service. The top holdings are still majorly mag7 stocks. This is not bad and in some ways good.
GE aerospace is a top 10 and your weighting in oil companies is huge. RKLB, TSM, SK Hynix are some non S&P500 stocks that stand out.
This is a very aggressive and complicated portfolio to dollar cost average into. While not top 10 heavy, still weighted heavily into volatile stocks.
The thematic etfs can go down or sideways for months or years. It can be very easy to stress about them. A broad market momentum etf like SPMO or FMTM could simplify your 30% etf hunting portion of your portfolio. It's up to you.

TSM, GOOG, MSFT
I'm willing to bet that at least 2 out of the 3 print on earnings day
