  1. CHINESE CULTURE HAS THE BELIEF THAT KNOWLEDGE IS THE PROPERTY OF MANKIND this does not sit with the Western culture of "This is exclusively mine to profit from" I learned this on a degree program about ancient Chinese philosophy and always wondered how it manifested in the modern world.

  2. I think ASML are being very VERY optimistic there - I think its more like 5 years. This is largely because ASML are unable to invest as much in R&D due to lower revenue as a result of not being able to sell to China and China having essentially unlimited R&D budget.

  3. "ITS MORE IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND CHINA" 4 years ago I did the first year of a degree program in Ancient Chinese Philosophy - I immediately realised you can NOT understand China without knowing Chinese philosophy and you can NOT understand Chinese manufacturing unless you understand China. If you think about China or Chinas manufacturing with Western mind - you will be completely wrong. What shocks me is how many US leaders have ZERO idea about China.

  6.  @davidlazarus67  YES the sanctions condemned the West to fall behind NOT keep ahead. If you are going to impose the sanctions then you need to government fund ASML with $10 billion a year for R&D. Sanctions ALWAYS stifle innovation - 100% tariffs on Chinese cars mean Am3ric4ns will be driving $200k cars in 15 years that are face lift versions of today's models that are facelift versions of cars developed in the 2000's I believe China has a prototype EUV machine
