Electronic Technology · Semiconductors · economic_daily · 2026-09-22
Boosted by Nasdaq's rally, the Taiwan Stock Exchange hit a new intraday peak before trimming gains due to pre-holiday profit-taking, closing at a record 47,800.17 points.
What Happened
Market Performance: Driven by the record-breaking performance of the Nasdaq in the U.S., the Taiwan stock market surged by nearly 900 points during the session, hitting a new intraday high of 48,601.53. However, selling pressure ahead of the long holiday caused the index to pare gains, ending the day with a modest increase of 81.33 points.
Closing Data: The weighted index finished at 47,800.17 points, marking a 0.17% gain and setting a new historical closing record. Market activity remained robust, with total turnover reaching NT$1.02 trillion, reflecting sustained investor interest.
Key Stock Movements: TSMC saw its share price climb to 2,150 during the session but ultimately closed down by 20 at 2,460 due to profit-taking. Conversely, MediaTek and Delta Electronics showed resilience, closing at 5,180 and 1,900 respectively, helping the broader market stay in positive territory.
Market Sentiment: While the index reached a new milestone, pre-holiday caution led some investors to lock in profits, preventing the initial rally from holding until the close. Overall, market sentiment remains optimistic, though short-term volatility is expected as the holiday approaches.
