The Taiwan Weighted (TAIEX) closed at 42,711.92 on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, up 1,050.22 points, or 2.52 percent, from Monday's close of 41,661.70. The session was already finished in Taiwan before the configured Europe/Berlin midday slot, so this is a closing report rather than a live-market update.
Wall Street rebound supports Taipei
According to Focus Taiwan, dealers linked the advance to the overnight recovery on Wall Street and falling crude oil prices, which eased inflation concerns. The Nasdaq gained 2.74 percent in the referenced U.S. session, while the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rose 6.85 percent. The TAIEX moved between 41,930.03 and 43,135.92 points during the day, and turnover reached NT$1.00 trillion.
Chip shares drive the advance
Technology stocks were the main source of index support. TSMC rose 2.24 percent to NT$2,285.00 and contributed about 400 points to the TAIEX, while MediaTek gained 2.82 percent and ASE Technology advanced 7.84 percent, Focus Taiwan reported. Delta Electronics and Gold Circuit Electronics each rose 10 percent. The electronics sector gained 3.06 percent, while financial shares and food stocks declined.
The rally followed a 4.94 percent jump on Monday, when the index posted its second-largest daily point gain on record. The Taipei Times reported that the National Stabilization Fund had authorized market intervention after a prolonged technology-led sell-off. Regulators also tightened intraday short-selling limits and raised the minimum margin requirement.
Rebound faces a key test
The strong index performance did not mean selling pressure had disappeared. Foreign institutional investors sold a net NT$34.12 billion on Tuesday, according to Focus Taiwan. That divergence leaves the market sensitive to further moves in global technology shares, oil prices and foreign flows. The two-day rebound has restored part of the losses from the previous sell-off, but it should be viewed as a market development rather than a standalone signal about future returns.
