The race for the highest-priced stock in Taiwan intensifies as King Slide gains momentum on AI demand, narrowing the gap with current leader Aspeed to under NT$1,000.
What Happened
Intensifying Competition: The battle for the top spot in the Taiwan stock market has heated up as Aspeed faces downward pressure, while King Slide continues to rally, narrowing the price gap between the two to just NT$705.
Aspeed's Market Position: Since securing the title of the most expensive stock in August 2022, Aspeed has reached significant milestones, including becoming the first stock to surpass the NT$10,000 mark, though recent volatility has seen its price retreat from record highs.
King Slide's Transformation: Originally a manufacturer of traditional furniture rails, King Slide has successfully pivoted to the high-precision AI server rack market, capturing over 80% of the global market share and driving a sustained long-term uptrend in its share price.
Analyst Outlook: While King Slide is rapidly closing the gap, institutional investors maintain higher price targets for Aspeed, reflecting continued confidence in the long-term growth potential and competitive positioning of both companies within the AI supply chain.
