Taiwan stocks surged early on strong NVIDIA earnings before paring gains to close up 142 points at 45,975, driven by mixed tech performance and petrochemical strength.
What Happened
Market Overview: Taiwan stocks opened significantly higher, buoyed by NVIDIA's robust earnings and guidance, briefly surpassing the 46,400-point mark. However, profit-taking pressure emerged throughout the session, causing the index to trim its gains and close at 45,975.22, up 0.31%.
Tech Sector Performance: Performance among major tech stocks was mixed, with TSMC dipping 0.21% to 2,410 after turning negative in the afternoon. Conversely, Hon Hai Precision gained 2.23% to 252, while Largan Precision hit the daily limit of 6,915, setting a new record high.
Sector Rotation: The thermal management sector saw strong momentum, with stocks like Auras and AVC rising over 5%. Meanwhile, the petrochemical sector attracted significant capital due to semiconductor material applications, leading to limit-up closes for Nan Ya Plastics and KOC.
Trading Volume: Market activity was elevated, with total turnover reaching NT$924.68 billion. Despite the narrowing gains, the rapid rotation between electronic and traditional sectors suggests a dynamic market environment with sustained investor interest.
