Get your monies ready.

Taiwan's Foxconn (2317.TW), the world's largest contract electronics maker, said on Tuesday that the second half of the year is heading "in a better direction" as Shanghai's COVID-19 lockdown appears to be easing.

"We are quite confident in the stability of our supply chain for the second half of this year," Foxconn chairman Liu Young-way told the company's annual shareholder meeting.

The Shanghai government will allow all residents in 'low-risk' areas to return to work from Tuesday.

Foxconn and Chinese lockdowns have nothing to do with TSMC in Taiwan or Samsung in Korea, which are the sources of GPU and console shortages.

Local supplier of 'near' slave labor promises increased output for Western markets.

The families of traitor employees who cannot meet quotas will be billed for the bullets used to execute them.

Not necessarily, Foxconn builds the consoles, so having more staff will mean they can be churned out quicker.

The chips are just another cog in the wheel.
