The Taipei stock exchange hit a new high today, led by TSMC, Hon Hai and Evergreen Marine. We should still keep an eye on the speed of the rises and falls during the trading session and see how they relate to each other. The index continues on its upward trend, but stock rotation is also quite high. So that could result in a rise one day and a fall in the next.

AI concept stocks made gains across the board, with Wistron shares rallying by 4.29%, and MediaTek shares picking up NT$5 to hit NT$1,155. Inventec and Quanta shares went up by 1.62% and 2.51% respectively. Semiconductor stocks also performed well, sending the value of the weighted index, the stock exchange, and the over-the-counter market soaring to a combined record-high of NT$67.7 trillion. The number of companies with shares above NT$1,000 has also hit a new high of 15.
