A 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck Taiwan today.

Analysts believe the event may cause delays for NVIDIA Corp. ($NVIDIA Corporation NVDA$), as their GPU production depends on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. ($Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. Sponsored ADR TSM$), which now faces equipment reexamination and maintenance.

Storage equipment is also likely to require servicing post-quake, potentially leading to price increases for storage solutions. The maintenance period could last from one to three months.
