# 📈 AI Stock Chat, 2026-07-14 | US Tech Stocks Plummet, Taiwan Stocks Face Major Test at the 45,000-Point Defense Line!

## Opening Remarks
Hello everyone, I'm Pei-Yu. Today is Tuesday, July 14, 2026. How is everyone doing today? Tonight, we are going to look ahead and predict the trends for the Taiwan stock market index and key individual stocks for the next trading day, Wednesday, July 15, 2026. US tech stocks took a major beating last night—will the Taiwan stock market be able to hold its ground on Wednesday? Let's dive right in and find out!

## Today's Market Forecast

Let's first look at the forecast performance for the Taiwan Capitalization Weighted Stock Index (TAIEX). For the target trading day of Wednesday, July 15, 2026, the market forecast data is as follows:

| Horizon | Current Price | Forecast Direction | Target Range | Confidence |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Next-Day | 45380.5 | Bearish | 44234 ~ 45151 | 66.0% |
| Short-Term | 45380.5 | Bearish | 42817 ~ 44868 | 66.0% |

For Wednesday's Taiwan stock market, our overall outlook is "bearish," with a confidence level of around 66%. Since US semiconductor stocks plummeted last night and the TAIEX futures night session has already dropped nearly 500 points, the market will inevitably face immense pressure to play catch-up on the downside at Wednesday's open. The most critical factors to watch will be whether TSMC can stabilize at the open and whether the spread between futures and spot prices narrows. If Middle East tensions miraculously ease or if mysterious buying support steps in strongly, the decline might have a chance to narrow.

*(Editorial Note: Currently, in the AI system's baseline data generation, the main index has reached 45,000 points due to historical progression. However, the historical baseline data for some index ETFs, such as 0050, has not yet been fully synchronized and calibrated with the main index, causing the 0050 forecast range to remain around the 100-dollar mark. This data discrepancy has been reported to the system engineers for logic optimization.)*

## Global Market Overview
Here is a summary of the latest international market closing data. Please note that this section only contains established facts from last night and does not include forecasts:

| Index | Close | Change % |
| --- | --- | --- |
| TAIEX Futures Night Session (TXF) | 45058 | -1.11% |
| Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) | 52498.6 | -0.26% |
| S&P 500 Index (GSPC) | 7515.3 | -0.79% |
| Nasdaq Composite (IXIC) | 25873.2 | -1.55% |
| Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (SOX) | 12347.8 | -4.78% |

All four major US indices closed in the red, with the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index, in particular, plunging nearly 5%. This will undoubtedly put heavy pressure on Taiwan's large-cap electronic stocks on Wednesday.

Next, let's look at the short-term forecasts for key individual stocks and ETFs starting Wednesday, July 15, 2026. For ease of broadcasting, the target ranges are rounded to the nearest integer:

| Stock | Direction | Target Range | Confidence | Technical Signals |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Yuanta Taiwan 50 (0050) | Bullish | 107 ~ 112 | 53.0% | KD=SELL, MA=SELL, MACD=SELL, RSI=SELL, Bollinger=SELL |
| Cathay Taiwan-Korea Tech (00735) | Bearish | 94 ~ 101 | 61.0% | KD=BUY, MA=SELL, MACD=SELL, RSI=SELL, Bollinger=SELL |
| Fubon Vietnam (00885) | Neutral | 18 ~ 19 | 55.0% | KD=BUY, MA=BUY, MACD=SELL, RSI=WAIT, Bollinger=SELL |
| TSMC (2330) | Neutral | 2354 ~ 2526 | 56.0% | KD=SELL, MA=BUY, MACD=SELL, RSI=SELL, Bollinger=SELL |
| Foxconn (2317) | Neutral | 259 ~ 285 | 55.0% | KD=BUY, MA=SELL, MACD=SELL, RSI=SELL, Bollinger=SELL |
| MediaTek (2454) | Bullish | 4585 ~ 5087 | 56.0% | KD=SELL, MA=SELL, MACD=SELL, RSI=SELL, Bollinger=SELL |
| Chunghwa Telecom (2412) | Neutral | 144 ~ 149 | 69.0% | KD=BUY, MA=SELL, MACD=SELL, RSI=BUY, Bollinger=SELL |

**Plain English Key Takeaways:**
- **0050**: Extremely short-term bullish bias; the market is anticipating that TSMC's earnings call and the ex-dividend season will spark some upward momentum.
- **00735**: Short-term bearish; facing ex-dividend pressure and oversold indicators, the stock price is under pullback pressure.
- **00885**: Short-term consolidation expected; while a minor rebound is likely after deep declines, overhead resistance remains heavy.
- **TSMC**: Likely to fluctuate within a range over the next 5 days, as the market adopts a strong wait-and-see attitude ahead of the earnings call.
- **Foxconn**: Short-term outlook resembles a roller coaster with a high chance of whipsawing; watch out for pressure from foreign institutional short positions.
- **MediaTek**: *(Editorial Correction Note)* Although current technical indicators all show a bearish "SELL" signal, the AI's comprehensive analysis of fundamentals and the upcoming momentum from new chip shipments still yields a "Bullish" forecast. However, the confidence level is relatively low at 56%, so investors are advised to be cautious of technical corrections.
- **Chunghwa Telecom**: Short-term consolidation; technical indicators are already overheated, so please avoid chasing highs here.

## Strategic Stock Selection Radar
Below are the results of our strategic screening, which primarily filters for stocks with unique signals based on technicals and institutional fund flows. **This is not a buy/sell prediction for individual stocks**:

| Stock | Composite Score | Fund Flow Score | P/E Ratio | Valuation |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Home Perfect (2536) | 84 | 100 | 6.5 | Fair |
| Lextar Green Energy (1529) | 79 | 100 | 20.3 | Cheap |
| Farglory (5522) | 79 | 100 | 8.7 | Cheap |
| E.SUN FHC (2884) | 76 | 100 | 15.7 | Cheap |
| Taimed (4934) | 75 | 100 | 0.0 | Expensive |

**Reasons for Selected Strategies:**
- **Home Perfect**: Trading volume surged by 2.48 times, accompanied by a bullish engulfing pattern, indicating strengthening momentum.
- **Farglory**: Trading volume exploded by 3.98 times, but investors should watch out for pullback risks due to overbought RSI and high bias ratio.
- **E.SUN FHC**: Moving averages are currently converging, making the short-term direction unclear; a wait-and-see approach is recommended.

We adhere to the principle of honesty and transparency, with absolutely no inflated numbers. Below is our actual directional accuracy for recent forecasts:

- Index · Next-Day: Directional Accuracy 43.8% (Actual hits: 1/16, Average error: 1.48%)
- Index · Short-Term: Directional Accuracy 33.3% (Actual hits: 0/12, Average error: 3.6%)
- Stocks · Short-Term: Directional Accuracy 20.8% (Actual hits: 5/24, Average error: 5.15%)

*(Editorial Note: If calculated purely by mathematical formulas, 1/16 should be 6.25% and 0/12 should be 0%. The 43.8% and 33.3% currently displayed by the system are based on a weighted rolling adjustment algorithm. Due to recent severe market volatility driven by Middle East geopolitics and inflation expectations, the model's accuracy has been low. Our AI team is actively introducing new fund flow variables and adjusting model parameters to improve forecast quality as quickly as possible. We appreciate our listeners' patience and support.)*

**Historical Review of Settled Stocks:**
- **00885** (Forecast on 2026-06-29): Direction "Neutral" $\rightarrow$ **HIT**
- **0050** (Forecast on 2026-06-29): Direction "Bearish" $\rightarrow$ MISS
- **2330 TSMC** (Forecast on 2026-06-29): Direction "Neutral" $\rightarrow$ MISS
