Key points

  • The Taiex closed up 1,545.23 points, or 3.62%, at 44,257.15, its high of the day.
  • TSMC, Taiwan’s biggest listed company, rose NT$110, or 4.81%, to NT$2,395 (about $73).
  • Turnover was about NT$849.2 billion (about $26 billion).

What happened

The Taiex opened higher at 43,135.76, slipped briefly below Tuesday’s close of 42,711.92 as sellers came in, then climbed through the afternoon to finish at the day’s high of 44,257.15, according to Economic Daily News and Yahoo Finance data. The 1,545.23-point gain was confirmed by Newtalk, which called it a strong rebound after a run of sharp corrections.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) carried the index, closing at NT$2,395, up NT$110, after trading as low as NT$2,305, according to Economic Daily News. MediaTek and Nan Ya Plastics were also among the biggest contributors to the gain, the paper said, while semiconductor shares as a group rose about 4.5%.

Why London desks care

Wednesday’s close put the Taiex back above 44,000 for the first time since 2 November, after a volatile stretch for Taiwan stocks, according to Economic Daily News and Yahoo Finance data. TSMC alone makes up a large share of the index and supplies chips to most of the world’s biggest technology companies, so a move of this size in Taipei often sets the tone for chip stocks in Europe at the open.

Levels

Taiex: 44,257.15 (+3.62%). TSMC: NT$2,395 (+4.81%). Turnover: about NT$849.2 billion. US dollar: about NT$32.9 at Bank of Taiwan spot rates on Wednesday afternoon.

What to watch

  • Whether European chip stocks follow Taipei’s lead at the London open
  • Whether TSMC can hold above NT$2,300, its low of the day
  • Foreign investor flows in Taiwan after this week’s swings
