TSMC plans to sell 152 million shares in chipmaker Vanguard

TSMC plans to sell up to 152 million shares of Vanguard International Semiconductor via a block trade to institutional investors, reducing its stake in the chipmaker. The move is a share sale and ownership reduction rather than an operating update, so the impact is likely limited to sentiment and stock-flow dynamics. It may create modest pressure on Vanguard International Semiconductor shares but is not a broader sector event.
