Super bearish: Taiwan to impose sweeping short-selling restrictions starting Monday after its stock market suffers worst weekly decline since 2001.

Taiwan will impose emergency short-selling curbs starting Monday, and stands ready to deploy a $15,000,000,000 fund after the TAIEX’s worst week since 2001.
The TAIEX, Taiwan’s market-cap-weighted benchmark dominated by TSMC, plunged a record 3,737.67 points (9%) intraday on Friday. It broke below 40,000, hit 37,837.05 and entered a bear market, posting its fourth-largest closing point loss.
The AI selloff spread from Wall Street to Asia. TSMC fell 4.46% to NT$2,140 in Taiwan on Friday, after its U.S.-listed shares sank 10.78% on Thursday.
