By that logic TSMC is not the only one capable of 5nm. ASML should be the most valuable company in the world?

Certainly one of the most valuable, but I would still say TSMC as there are lots of other steps in the production besides photolithography (etching, ion implantation, vapor deposition, packing, ...).
