Foreign investors remained net sellers in Taiwan's concentrated equity market during September 7–11, 2026, offloading NT$5.104 billion (about $161.2 million) for a second consecutive week. Compal Electronics was the most heavily sold stock, followed by Wistron and Taishin Shin Kong Financial, while AUO led buying with 223,641 shares, ahead of Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing and Taiwan Business Bank. The weighted index closed at 46,184.85 points on September 11, down 366.28 points, or 0.79%, over the week. Foreign investors held NT$72.087673 trillion (about $2.3 trillion) of Taiwan-listed stocks, equal to 48.04% of total market capitalization, but the value of those holdings fell NT$442.902 billion from September 4. Analysts said the second week of net selling indicated near-term caution, although the latest outflow was smaller than the previous week's. Investors are watching U.S. Federal Reserve policy, the Taiwan dollar and fourth-quarter electronics orders, while foreign flows show a rotation away from contract manufacturers toward panels and semiconductors.
