A blockade of Taiwan would cut off TSMC, the world's leading maker of advanced semiconductors, and analysts warn the global economy would feel the effects within days rather than months.

Why now: Ongoing tensions between China and Taiwan keep raising fears about a disruption to the global semiconductor supply.
