Taiwan stocks post biggest intraday point drop in history! The FSC is urgently considering measures to stabilize the market.
On November 6, Taiwan’s stock market saw sharp volatility, plunging as much as 3,737.67 points intraday, or 8.99%.
Although the decline narrowed to 4.51% by the close, the market still faces considerable uncertainty.
Key figures:
① Biggest intraday drop: 3,737.67 points (-8.99%)
② Closing decline: 1,873.08 points (-4.51%)
③ Major weighted stocks, including TSMC, briefly hit their daily price limits.
④ The FSC is preparing to hold a meeting to discuss measures to stabilize the stock market.
Possible measures currently being considered include restricting short selling through stock borrowing and raising margin requirements for short selling, but no measures have been officially confirmed for implementation.
This volatility also reflects the global AI and semiconductor industries undergoing a repricing.
As U.S. AI stocks such as NVIDIA and AMD fell sharply, Taiwan—as a key part of the global semiconductor supply chain—was also affected by market sentiment.
Three things to watch next:
Whether U.S. tech stocks can stabilize, whether the Taiwanese government will introduce market-stabilization measures, and whether global semiconductor investment continues to flow out.
