Finance · Investment Banks/Brokers · economic_daily · 2026-09-11

The Taiwan stock market faced a massive sell-off today, with the index dropping 755.64 points as institutional investors net sold NT$112.37 billion in shares.

What Happened

Market Performance: The Taiwan stock market experienced a significant downturn today, with the weighted index falling by 755.64 points to close at 46184.85. Trading volume surged to NT$721.908 billion, reflecting heightened volatility and panic selling among market participants.

Institutional Activity: Institutional investors were net sellers, offloading a total of NT$112.372 billion in equities. Foreign and mainland Chinese investors led the selling spree with a net outflow of NT$89.27 billion, while proprietary traders also contributed to the decline by selling NT$30.201 billion.

Domestic Support: Despite the broad market sell-off, domestic investment trusts acted as a stabilizing force by purchasing NT$7.099 billion in shares. This buying activity highlights a divergence in strategy between local institutional funds and foreign capital during the session.

Market Outlook: The heavy selling pressure from foreign institutions suggests a shift in sentiment regarding the local market's short-term outlook. Investors are now closely monitoring whether this selling trend will persist or if domestic institutional support can help stabilize the index in the coming days.
