Taiwan's stock market surged past 46,000 points at the open but reversed sharply due to profit-taking. While TSMC and MediaTek declined, five stocks including Nanya Technology and Winbond surged to their daily trading limits despite the broader market weakness.

Taiwan's stock market opened with strong momentum today, briefly surging to 46,064.06 points in early trading. However, profit-taking pressure quickly emerged, causing the index to reverse course and decline. By midday, the main index stood at 45,706.99 points, down 27.42 points or 0.06% from the previous close, with an intraday low of 45,352.41 points. The overall market displayed a weak consolidation pattern.

Blue-chip stocks showed weak performance, particularly among tech heavyweights, which suppressed broader market gains:

By sector, plastics stocks faced heavy selling pressure, led by the Formosa Plastics Group. Financial stocks also weakened broadly. In contrast, memory stocks and select automotive and networking component stocks attracted strong buying interest, delivering standout performances.
