發布於 2025-04-11 10:49:14
The Tai-Ex opened down 228-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 18,773 on turnover of 11-billion N-T.
Taiwan stocks finished up 9.25 percent Thursday, surging more than 1,600 points at the market's opening after U.S. President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause on his steep "reciprocal" tariffs on most countries.
Three heavyweight stocks -- Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC), Hon Hai (Foxconn) and MediaTek -- hit their limit-up prices.
The market subsequently (隨後) flattened out, with many stocks hitting their daily 10 percent limit-up prices, which also kept turnover relatively low.

Criminal Investigation Bureau says Taiwan is continuing talks with Cambodia to prevent 179 Taiwan fraud suspects from being deported to China.
According to a member of bureau's liaison officer in Ho Chi Minh City, negotiations are on going in order that the suspects are sent to Taiwan instead to face legal consequences.
The statement comes after media reports out of Cambodia haven suggesting that the Taiwan suspects were to be handed over to China as a goodwill (善意) gesture to Beijing.
The Taiwanese suspects were all arrested on March 31 during raids of an online telecommunication fraud center in Phnom Penh.
Reports say they are currently scheduled to be deported to China on Sunday along with over 300 Chinese nationals.

Israel has freed 10 Palestinians detained from Gaza, the latest in periodic releases from the thousands of people troops have seized during the military campaign in the territory.
The men returned to the Gaza Strip and said they had suffered frequent abuse while imprisoned, including beatings.
They were welcomed by family members at a hospital in central Gaza.
There was no immediate comment by the military.
Israeli officials have said that they abide by (遵守) the letter of the law in the treatment of prisoners and investigate violations.
But there have been widespread reports of abuse of Palestinian detainees in military prison camps and civilian prisons.
US Stocks Fall as Trump Confirms 145Percent China Tariffs
發布於 2025-04-11 10:49:14
U.S. stocks fell on Thursday as President Trump clarified that he had raised tariffs on Chinese goods by a total of 145 percent.
It comes as new inflation data shows that U.S. inflation eased more than expected in March but economists suggest this is likely to be a temporary reprieve (暫時緩解) before tariffs take effect.

Canada Mounties Bust BC Drug Labs
發布於 2025-04-11 10:49:14
Canadian police have dismantled three drug labs in the Pacific-coast province of British Columbia.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police also arrested two suspects, including someone described as a “chemist,” but no charges have yet been laid as the police probe continues.
The Mounties say they executed “numerous (許多的)” search warrants in late March and found the three labs, which were equipped with sophisticated equipment that is also used in “academic and professional research facilities.”
Police say two of the illicit drug labs are believed to have been used to produce fentanyl, but the purpose of the third lab remains “undetermined.”
