It comes down to the stunning cost of being a major CPU manufacturer. The industry is so competitive, you need to build a major new factory every two years or so, and such a factory can easily cost over a billion dollars, and must be supported by an army of extremely advanced design engineers.

There isn’t room for many companies to keep up with this spending race and still make a profit.
