signal brief

Multiple Manifold Markets predictions as of July 10, 2026 indicate strong consensus that ASML will maintain its exclusive position in EUV lithography. The market assigns 79.92% probability to ASML being the sole EUV producer through end of 2026 (source), 69.43% through end of 2027 (source), and 96.17% that ASML was a monopoly at end of 2024 (source). Only 16.7% believe China currently possesses an ASML EUV machine (source), and just 6.28% think ASML sold an EUV tool to China in 2023 (source). These figures suggest ASML's export controls remain effective. On the risk side, 50% probability the US will force ASML to halt China exports before 2029 (source) and 56.45% China develops domestic EUV by 2030 (source). Overall, the market sees ASML's competitive moat as robust in the near term.
