(Central News Agency Reporter Wu Chia-hao, Taipei, 8th) Following a pullback in US chip stocks, the Taiwan stock market experienced high volatility today. The index opened lower, then briefly turned positive to surpass 42000 points, but ultimately succumbed to short-term profit-taking pressure, falling back to around 41100 points, with a high-low swing exceeding 900 points. The TAIEX ultimately closed at 41603.94 points, down 329.84 points, a decrease of 0.79%, with a transaction value of NT$1.245002 trillion.
