Opening Remarks
Hello, fellow investors! This is Pei-Yu. How is everyone doing today? In today's show, we will be analyzing the market trends for the TAIEX and key individual stocks for Thursday, July 16, 2026. Triggered by the outbreak of geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East, US stock markets have experienced a significant pullback. This puts tomorrow's TAIEX in a critical battle to defend the major 45,000-point threshold. Everyone must be extremely cautious in their trading operations!
Today's Market Forecast
Our target trading day for the forecast is Thursday, July 16, 2026. Below is the latest forecast data generated by our system for the Taiwan Capitalization Weighted Stock Index (TAIEX):
| Horizon | Current Price | Forecast Direction | Target Range | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Next-Day (07-16) | 44737.95 | Bearish | 44233.89~45151.19 | 66.0% |
| Short-Term (1 Week) | 44737.95 | Bearish | 42816.59~44867.73 | 66.0% |
For the market trend on Thursday, July 16, 2026, the system has issued a bearish signal with a confidence level of approximately 66%. This is primarily due to the sharp decline in the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index, coupled with foreign institutional investors' short positions in futures reaching historic highs. The most critical factor for tomorrow's opening will be whether the 45,000-point mark can hold. Although the fundamentals of Taiwan stocks remain very strong, the short-term international situation is highly volatile. It is recommended that beginners hold onto cash, watch from the sidelines, and avoid rushing in to catch a falling knife.

Plain-English Stock Commentary:
- Cathay Taiwan KOSPI IT ETF (00735): With the ex-dividend date approaching and the South Korean stock market having just experienced a sharp drop, short-term pressure is relatively heavy.
- TSMC (2330): The upcoming earnings call is the main event. The market is holding its breath in anticipation, making the stock price prone to consolidating in place.
- Yuanta Taiwan 50 (0050): With TSMC's earnings call and ex-dividend date just around the corner, a strong wait-and-see attitude prevails in the market, making the stock price susceptible to whipsawing within a narrow range.
- Fubon FTSE Vietnam ETF (00885): The stock price has just broken below the quarterly moving average. Although there is a chance for a short-term rebound, foreign institutional investors are still dumping shares, making a major rally unlikely for now.
- MediaTek (2454): The outlook for the next five trading days leans bullish, but due to high market volatility, investors are advised to watch out for high-level fluctuations.
- Foxconn (2317): The short term will feel like a roller coaster ride with sharp ups and downs. Beginners should be mindful of the pressure from heavy short-selling by foreign institutional investors across the broader market.
- Chunghwa Telecom (2412): The short-term outlook shows a consolidating pattern of running in place. Technical indicators are running slightly hot, so please do not rush to chase highs here!
