On November 9, iShares MSCI Taiwan ETF rose 5.14% in Regular Trading, trading at $93.87, with turnover of $135.0 million.
The move coincided with renewed support for Taiwan semiconductor sentiment after fresh October sales data from key chip-related companies pointed to continued demand resilience.
Recent disclosures showed Alchip reported October sales of TWD 1.24 billion, up 48.9% year over year. United Microelectronics previously reported October sales of TWD 25.20 billion, up 18% year over year, while revenue for the first ten months reached TWD 229.21 billion, up 16.33%. As iShares MSCI Taiwan ETF tracks the MSCI Taiwan Index and is heavily exposed to Taiwan-listed large- and mid-cap stocks, stronger semiconductor fundamentals provided a direct backdrop for the ETF's advance.
The fund generally will invest at least 80% of its assets in the component securities of its underlying index and in investments that have economic characteristics that are substantially identical to the component securities of its underlying index. The index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization-weighted index that is designed to measure the performance of the large- and mid-capitalization segments of the equity market in Taiwan. The fund is non-diversified.
