發佈於 2022-03-23 10:49:13

The Tai-Ex opened up 21-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 17,581 on turnover of 2.4-billion N-T.

The market closed nearly flat on Tuesday, after moving in consolidation mode, as investor sentiment followed a lackluster performance on Wall Street overnight on the back of a hawkish statement by U-S Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.

While lingering concerns over Russia's war Ukraine also weighed on the local main board, with the bellwether electronics sector taking the brunt (首當其衝) of the pressure.

Ukraine's deputy prime minister says the Russians seized 11 bus drivers and four rescue workers along with their vehicles.

Germany's parliament has paid tribute (致敬) to Boris Romanchenko, who survived several Nazi concentration camps during World War II but was killed last week during an attack in the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv.
