(TSMC) (<a href=\"\/stock\/TSM\">TSM<\/a>) gained 2.44%<\/strong>, closing at <strong>NT$2,285<\/strong> and contributing approximately <strong>400 points<\/strong> to the index&#39;s overall rise.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Government intervention remains a primary driver<\/strong>, with the <strong>National Stabilization Fund (NSF)<\/strong> and new <strong>short-selling restrictions<\/strong> providing a backstop for the market after a volatile week.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Technology sectors led the rally<\/strong>, with <strong>MediaTek (<a href=\"\/stock\/2454\">2454<\/a>)<\/strong> rising <strong>2.82%<\/strong> and <strong>ASE Technology (<a href=\"\/stock\/ASX\">ASX<\/a>)<\/strong> jumping <strong>7.84%<\/strong> as global AI sentiment stabilized.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Taiwan stock market continued its aggressive recovery on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, as the <strong>TAIEX<\/strong> extended a multi-day rebound. The benchmark index reached an intraday high of <strong>43,135.92<\/strong> before settling at <strong>42,711.92<\/strong>, marking a significant turnaround from the bear-market territory entered just days prior.<\/p>\n<p>Market sentiment was bolstered by a stabilization in global technology shares and easing inflation concerns as crude <a href=\"https:\/\/stockmarketwatch.com\/energy\/crude-oil\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"12\" title=\"Crude oil\">oil prices<\/a> softened. Analysts noted that the &quot;AI-linked&quot; correction, which saw the index shed over <strong>5,500 points<\/strong> in the previous week, appears to be finding a floor as local investors buy into the dip.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TSMC (<a href=\"\/stock\/TSM\">TSM<\/a>)<\/strong>, which represents more than <strong>40% of the TAIEX&#39;s total capitalization<\/strong>, spearheaded the gains. The chipmaker&#39;s <strong>2.44% rise<\/strong> followed reports of strong October revenue, which jumped <strong>60% year-on-year<\/strong> to <strong>NT$367.47 billion<\/strong>, underscoring sustained demand for high-end AI processors despite recent market volatility.<\/p>\n<p>Other major tech players also saw significant buying interest. <strong>MediaTek (<a href=\"\/stock\/2454\">2454<\/a>)<\/strong> climbed <strong>2.82%<\/strong> to <strong>NT$3,830<\/strong>, while <strong>ASE Technology Holding Co. (<a href=\"\/stock\/ASX\">ASX<\/a>)<\/strong> surged <strong>7.84%<\/strong> to <strong>NT$605<\/strong>. The printed circuit board (PCB) sector was particularly strong, with several firms including <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/stockmarketwatch.com\/metal\/gold\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"gold price today\">Gold<\/a> Circuit Electronics<\/strong> and <strong>Dynamic Holding<\/strong> hitting their <strong>10% daily limit<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The recovery is being heavily supported by the <strong>Taiwanese government&#39;s active countermeasures<\/strong>. The <strong>National Stabilization Fund<\/strong> was authorized to intervene last week, and the <strong>Financial Supervisory Commission<\/strong> has implemented strict curbs on short selling. These measures include lowering the intraday short-sale volume limit to <strong>3%<\/strong> (from <strong>30%<\/strong>) and raising margin requirements to <strong>130%<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the rally, some analysts remain cautious as <strong>foreign institutional investors<\/strong> have remained net sellers for nine consecutive sessions. While the index has reclaimed the <strong>42,000 level<\/strong>, it remains below its <strong>5-day and 10-day moving averages<\/strong>, suggesting that a full trend reversal is still contingent on stabilized foreign capital flows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key Takeaways The Taiwan Weighted Index (TAIEX) surged 1,050.22 points, or 2.52%, to close at 42,711.92,
