Taiwan is in crisis after President Donald Trump’s sudden imposition of a staggering 32% tariff on Taiwanese imports. In just two days, the Taiwan Stock Exchange Index (TAIEX) collapsed nearly 14%, wiping out billions and plunging to its lowest point in 14 months. The government has responded with an emergency deployment of its $15.15 billion National Stabilization Fund in a desperate bid to restore order. This move, authorized by the Ministry of Finance, comes amid a wave of foreign investor sell-offs and mounting fears of a broader economic meltdown. Trading volume has dropped to a two-year low, and over 1,700 companies hit their daily loss limits—surpassing even the 2008 financial crisis. As global panic spreads, Taiwan’s leadership is scrambling to stabilize the market with buybacks, transparency measures, and temporary short-selling curbs. With Taiwan’s vital role in the global tech supply chain at risk, the government’s bold intervention could determine the nation’s financial fate in the face of intensifying trade warfare.
