WAR-GAME
What if several tracks go dark together? Union of blast radii with shortest-tier attribution. Run a named scenario or cut a custom set of tracks — lead demos here after single-node Blast Radius.
TAIWAN-STRAIT
Taiwan Strait closure
Taiwan Strait closure: 8 firms go dark, taking 239 downstream firms with them, including 4 DoD-exposed suppliers, wiping out 34 segments.
- A blockade or military closure of the Taiwan Strait cuts off shipping and air transit to and from Taiwan-based fabs and assembly/test houses.
- Assumes total loss of output from Taiwan-headquartered firms for the duration of the closure — no drawdown of buyer inventory, no emergency re-routing to other fabs. The 8 cut firms are the 3 largest Taiwan-HQ names by market cap plus the 5 with the widest supply-chain reach among the rest — not a ranked top-8 by any single measure.
- How much of the defense electronics supply base sits behind a single contested strait, and which DoD-exposed firms have no alternative source today?
