Tai-Ex opening
發布於 2024-07-15 10:18:14
The Tai-Ex opened up 10-points this morning from Friday's close, at 23,927 on turnover of 9.1-billion N-T.
The Tai-Ex tumbled more than 470-points on Friday as investors rushed to lock in gains from previous sessions.
That's despite the U-S reporting cooler than expected inflation data for June overnight.
Market watchers say selling was sparked by heavy losses suffered by tech stocks on Wall Street overnight - which pushed down the local bellwether electronics sector throughout the trading day.

In news from and about Taiwan this morning,
The military's changing of the guard has taken place inside the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall for the final time.
The curtain came down in the stationing of an honor guard in front of the statue of Chiang Kai-shek on Sunday.
The changing of the guard had taken place there every hour between 9AM and 5PM since the hall's opening in 1980.

The ministry says the move marks the first stage of removing "personal and authoritarian (獨裁的) worship."
Troops will still perform a handover ceremony every hour - but it will now take place on Democracy Boulevard in front of the memorial hall.
