Jurgis:

further on INTC: and the other part of the moat is the R&D - currently at 15.2% of sales - or $6.5B in research per yr.

re TSM: by the numbers it does look very nice. It's on my Greenblatt worksheet also just a little below INTC, and is superior in the "returns / quality" section, but the valuation metrics are higher as a trade-off. It's interesting that TSM achieves it strong returns on half the R&D as % of sales as INTC.
