I hope May is a great month for us, but I think the market will be choppy until:
1) The Pfizer or Moderna vaccines prove they are effective against the new India double-mutation strain. I think a lot of people are worried it's only a matter of time before what's happening in India spreads worldwide.
2) The extent of the chip shortage becomes clear.

Right now, right or wrong, the perception is that less chips are being delivered, hence concern over TSM's earnings.
Edit: Was just browsing the TSM conversation forums:

CEO said they could meet the basic chip demand as soon as in June.
Bullish
I hope that comes to pass and the situation turns around in June!
