The Taiwan stock market saw a massive turnover of NT$1.47 trillion today. Pocket Securities announced that due to the surge in trading volume, the company's daily order limit set by the Taiwan Stock Exchange was exceeded, leading to a temporary suspension of 'listed' stock trading orders. OTC and Emerging Stock orders remain unaffected. Pocket Securities clarified that this was not a system crash but a result of hitting the daily order limit. The company has activated emergency response mechanisms and is contacting affected clients. It promised to handle any actual losses in the most favorable way for clients and to cover reasonable losses. The company is reporting the incident to regulators and implementing preventive measures.
