Taiwan's stock market jumped on Monday, a good day for investors as the index climbed back toward record territory.

• The main Taiwan index rose 1.67%, closing near 47,300 points.
• Trading was heavy, with turnover close to NT$940 billion (about US$30 billion).
• Strong volume suggests real buying interest, not just a thin drift higher.
• Taiwan's market is closely tied to global chip demand, so gains here often track optimism about tech and AI spending.

Outlook: Momentum looks positive in the short term, but Taiwan's market will keep taking its cues from global tech demand and chip orders.
