President Donald Trump has set up a new body within the Commerce Department to manage the CHIPS and Science Act, 2022. 
What Happened: A new entity, the United States Investment Accelerator within the Commerce Department, will now oversee the CHIPS Act program, as established by an executive order signed by Trump on Monday.
Despite Trump&#8217;s past criticism of the bipartisan legislation, the White House said in its fact sheet that the new office will focus on &#8220;negotiating much better CHIPS Act deals&#8221; and streamlining investment processes through reduced regulatory burdens and faster permitting.
According to the <a href="https://www.semiconductors.org/chip-supply-chain-investments/">Semiconductor Industry Association</a>, the CHIPS Program has granted awards worth $32.5417 billion and provided loans up to $5.85 billion to 32 companies across 23 states. 
However, the new entity — Investment Accelerator that will be controlling the CHIPS Act, not only plans to expedite corporate investments but promises to deliver &#8221; the benefit of the bargain for taxpayers,&#8221; as per the Whit House fact sheet.
Other primary goals of the body include;
<ul>
<li>Reducing regulatory burdens</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Speeding up permitting;</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Coordinating responses to investor issues across multiple Federal agencies; </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Increasing access to national resources;</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Facilitating collaboration with national laboratories; </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Working with all 50 state governments and their economic development organizations.</li>
</ul>
Here are the U.S.-listed beneficiaries that have received grants under the CHIPS and Science Act, 2022 in the past.

Why It Matters: Trump has been vocal about his criticism of the CHIPS Act. On March 4, during his joint address to Congress, he said, &#8220;Your Chips Act is a horrible, horrible thing.&#8221;
He also urged U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson to &#8220;get rid&#8221; of it and use &#8220;whatever is left over&#8221; to &#8220;reduce debt or any other reason you want to.&#8221;
However, the White House&#8217;s new plan has passed on the management of the act to the new entity. Since his time in office, Trump has been able to convince companies to invest in the U.S.
In early March, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (NYSE: TSM revealed its plans to inject another $100 billion into U.S. advanced semiconductor manufacturing, significantly expanding its ongoing $65 billion Arizona initiative and bringing total investment to $165 billion.
Similarly, the Magnificent 7 companies are widely expected to spend more than $330 billion on capex in 2025. While the chipmaker Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) hasn't explicitly mentioned a target during its earnings call, the iPhone maker Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) broadly expects to spend $500 billion over the next four years. The remaining companies, however, have provided a specific target for 2025.

Trading Ideas

$1000 Invested In Texas Instruments 15 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Many investors find the benefits of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44461718/high-income-earner-with-3000-monthly-to-invest-faces-big-decision-i-definitely-want-to-diversify-beyond-ai-and-dividends">dividends</a>, such as money working for you and steady payouts, incredibly appealing. In fact, for many, dividends are the closest thing to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/07/39914065/financial-freedom-or-bust-why-suze-orman-says-your-wallet-matters-more-than-your-flag">financial freedom</a>: they don&#8217;t need to sell assets, do not need to time the market, and get reliable income.
That&#8217;s why ETFs like Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHD#NYSE">SCHD</a>) have become so popular. They offer investors a diversified blend of dividend-paying stocks, stable growth potential, and a tax-efficient income stream.
But is parking $1 million into SCHD only the best move? This is what a Redditor recently asked on the online discussion board, sparking a heated debate in the comments.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart &amp; Target – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">Many are rushing to grab 4,000 of its pre-IPO shares for just $0.26/share!</a></li>
<li>If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-private-credit-fund">7-9% target yield with monthly dividends would you invest in it</a>?</li>
</ul>
The investor has a portfolio already in place but is contemplating how to invest an unexpected $1 million windfall. His goal is to generate passive income to cover basic expenses like taxes and insurance without risking the principal, so he&#8217;s considering going all in SCHD.
Some in the r/Dividends community agreed wholeheartedly with the poster, while others suggested different strategies. Let&#8217;s see their insights.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">$1 Million Windfall in SCHD? Redditors Showed Mixed Feelings</h2>
SCHD Offers a Balanced Mix of Income and Growth
Many commenters agreed with the poster, saying that SCHD is a good choice and not only does it pay out dividends but it also provides capital appreciation, which makes it a great long-term hold.
&#8220;There&#8217;s nothing wrong with that hypo. Great diversification, growth, and income. All while being conservative. There are alternatives that give the same if not better options, but for a basic answer, yes, it would be fine,&#8221; a Redditor said.
&#8220;In a taxable account, living off the SCHD-qualified dividends and then supplementing that with 401(k) distributions is the way to go in my opinion,&#8221; a commenter wrote.
Trending: Can you guess how many retire with a $5,000,000 nest egg? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/5mil-nest-egg-adv">The percentage may shock you</a>.
One Redditor mentioned a dividend reinvestment plan into SCHD is a good strategy, especially if the poster isn&#8217;t close to retirement.
&#8220;If you are still younger and pre-retirement, and the SCHD is in a retirement account, I say [dividend reinvestment plan] and forget it until closer to retirement,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;SCHD has a relatively high turnover rate, which means that the underlying holdings of the ETF are bought and sold more frequently than the average ETF,&#8221; a Redditor advocated.
Diversify Beyond SCHD
While most comments centered around SCHD, some Redditors suggested mixing in several other stocks or ETFs for higher income and/or better risk-adjusted returns.
&#8220;I like my [JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jepi#NYSE">JEPI</a>)]/[JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jepq#NYSE">JEPQ</a>)]. Yields about $110,000 on $1 million and pays monthly,&#8221; a user said.
A commenter shared that he balances SCHD with broad-market growth, ensuring he doesn&#8217;t miss out on appreciation.
&#8220;That&#8217;s my plan. Except I do 70% SCHD, 30% [Schwab U.S. Broad Market ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/schb#NYSE">SCHB</a>)]. The SCHB is to participate in the S&amp;P 500 growth. In case my bet on SCHD isn&#8217;t as good as I hope, I can do a variation of stock sales that Bogleheads view as the answer to life.&#8221;
&#8220;My portfolio at age 50 will be about 75% SCHD, 25% [Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/vti#NYSE">VTI</a>)],&#8221; a commenter said.

One Redditor pointed out that the poster&#8217;s plan is his retirement plan also, but he&#8217;s balancing his portfolio with other assets as well.
&#8220;Nothing wrong with this. This is essentially my retirement plan. $2 million in [SPDR Portfolio S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/splg#NYSE">SPLG</a>)] + $2 million in SCHD + $500,000 in [Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqq#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>)] = retirement,&#8221; he wrote.
Sharing a list of stocks he would invest in if he were in the poster&#8217;s situation, this Reddit investor splits them into buckets that either focus on dividends or growth.
&#8220;If you&#8217;re looking to create $38,000 from $1 million, you could also put ~$800,000 in Treasuries and $200,000 in pure-growth or dividend-growth stocks to get income and growth. Or you could do a high-low strategy that averages out to 3.8%; high for current income and low for growth. In the high bucket, you can include a combo of stocks like [Altria Group (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mo#NYSE">MO</a>)], [Energy Transfer LP (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/et#NYSE">ET</a>)], [Realty Income Corp.

In the dividend-growth bucket, you can include names like [Broadcom (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/avgo#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>)], [Microsoft (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msft#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>)], [Apple (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aapl#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>)], [Texas Instruments (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/txn#NASDAQ">TXN</a>)], and [Target (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tgt#NYSE">TGT</a>)],&#8221; he wrote.

Here's How Much $1000 Invested In Texas Instruments 15 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

President Donald Trump during his joint address to Congress on Tuesday evening called for ending the CHIPS Act, which provides manufacturing incentives to semiconductor companies setting up their facilities in the U.S.
What Happened: During a primetime address to Congress on Tuesday, the president criticized the legislation, saying, "Your Chips Act is a horrible, horrible thing." Trump urged U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson to "get rid" of it and use "whatever is left over" to "reduce debt or any other reason you want to."
According to <a href="https://www.semiconductors.org/chips-incentives-awards/">Semiconductor Industry Association</a>, the CHIPS Program has fueled investments in American semiconductor manufacturing. About $38 billion in grants and loans have been awarded to 32 companies across 23 states, mobilizing over $380 billion in private investment and creating an estimated 145,000 new jobs by 2030. 
Most notably, the Departments of Defense and Commerce awarded Intel Corp. up to $3 billion in CHIPS Act funding to expand domestic manufacturing of advanced semiconductors, strengthening the U.S. supply chain for critical national security needs.
Taiwan Semiconductor Mfg. Co. Ltd., on the other hand, was the recipient of $6.6 billion worth of grants, out of which $5 billion was a loaned amount for setting up projects worth $65 billion in Phoenix, Arizona.
Here are the U.S.-listed beneficiaries that have received grants under the CHIPS Act.

Why It Matters: A few hours before Trump&#8217;s Congress address, TSMC announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/03/44124444/taiwan-semiconductor-rises-as-100-billion-u-s-expansion-defies-market-downturn">plans to invest</a> an additional $100 billion in advanced semiconductor manufacturing in the United States. Building on a $65 billion project already underway in Arizona, this expansion brings the company&#8217;s total U.S. investment to a massive $165 billion. 
Addressing TSMC&#8217;s latest investment, Trump said, &#8220;All that was important to them was they didn't want to pay the tariffs. So they came and they're building. And many other companies are coming. We don't have to give them money, we just want to protect our businesses and our people, and they will come because they won't have to pay tariffs if they build in America.&#8221;

Trump Seeks To End CHIPS Act: Who Stands To Lose? Here's A List Of Beneficiaries That Could Be Affected

Texas Instruments's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXN#NYSE">TXN</a>) short percent of float has fallen 6.8% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 17.52 million shares sold short, which is 1.92% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.03 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Texas Instruments Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1740582946_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Texas Instruments has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Texas Instruments's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Texas Instruments's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.92%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

On Monday, Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence" rel="noreferrer noopener">committed over $500 billion</a> in investment in the U.S. over the next four years to support initiatives including artificial intelligence silicon engineering.
CEO Tim Cook noted that Apple is doubling its advanced manufacturing fund to build advanced technology in Texas.
The $500 billion commitment includes Apple Intelligence infrastructure, data centers, and Apple TV+ productions.

In the next four years, Apple plans to hire around 20,000 people, most of whom will focus on R&amp;D, silicon engineering, software development, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2025/02/apple-will-spend-more-than-500-billion-usd-in-the-us-over-the-next-four-years/" rel="noreferrer noopener">AI, and machine learning</a>.
Apple is doubling its U.S. advanced manufacturing fund from $5 billion to $10 billion. The fund&#8217;s expansion includes a multibillion-dollar commitment from Apple to produce advanced silicon in Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) Fab 21 facility in Arizona.
Apple is the largest customer at this facility, employing over 2,000 workers. Mass production of Apple chips began in January.
Apple&#8217;s investments in the sector help create thousands of jobs across the country at U.S. companies like Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), Texas Instruments Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXN#NASDAQ">TXN</a>), Skyworks Solutions Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NASDAQ">SWKS</a>), and Qorvo Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QRVO#NASDAQ">QRVO</a>).
Apple and its partners will launch a new advanced manufacturing facility in Houston to produce servers that support Apple Intelligence.
Apple will also double its U.S. advanced manufacturing fund, create an academy in Michigan to train the next generation of U.S. manufacturers and grow its research and development investments in the U.S.
Apple will work with manufacturing partners to begin production of servers in Houston later this year. A 250,000-square-foot server manufacturing facility, likely to open in 2026, will create thousands of jobs.
Previously manufactured outside the U.S., the servers that will soon be assembled in Houston play a key role in powering Apple Intelligence and are the foundation of private cloud computing for AI cloud computing.
As Apple brings Apple Intelligence to customers across the U.S., it plans to expand its data center capacity in North Carolina, Iowa, Oregon, Arizona, and Nevada.

<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.
