According to the legal representative, the one-time drop of more than 12% on November 5th may be better than the torturous 6% drop for two days.

If TSMC's stock price can stop falling and rebound between 2,000 and 2,100 yuan, the Taiwan stock market may also have a chance to rebound near the annual line of 39,000 points; unless US stocks fall sharply again, TSMC and the market index may fall further.
The legal person pointed out that if the holdings of investors are high, they can only wait for the Taiwan stock market index and individual stock prices to bottom out and rebound, and then eliminate the weak, retain the strong and perform share swap operations. As for investors who use large amounts of financing, they need to control investment risks.
