Taiwan Stocks Rise as TAIEX Closes at 47,940 After Record Intraday High

  • TAIEX gained 308 points as Taiwan electronic-technology shares advanced.
  • 48,380 marked a fresh intraday record for the benchmark index.
  • Traders awaited US PCE data before the Federal Reserve’s upcoming policy meeting.

Taiwan’s TAIEX rose 308 points, or 0.7%, to close at 47,940 on Wednesday, ending two sessions of losses after reaching a record intraday high of 48,380. Gains were led by electronic-technology shares following an advance in the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index. TSMC rose 1.0%, while MediaTek and Delta Electronics gained 1.2% and 4.4%, respectively. A weak Wall Street session and surging US Treasury yields restrained the advance as traders awaited the US PCE Index for clues about the Federal Reserve’s next policy decision. The index rose 3.9% for the quarter amid optimism over artificial-intelligence investment.
