[Financial Channel/Comprehensive Report] Taiwan stocks opened higher today (5th). The index opened up 99.21 points and opened at 48574.95 points. The market has also begun to discuss whether Taiwan stocks have the opportunity to challenge the "50,000 point" mark. A netizen posted on PTT that he had recently seen the Taiwan stock market continue to rise in the night market, which made him feel that this time he "really has a chance to reach 50,000 points." Thinking of his previous loss of money to "graduate", he couldn't help but feel itchy, and even considered borrowing money from his family to re-enter the market, which triggered a heated discussion among netizens.
The original PO said that he was actually a little "unconvinced" why everyone made money easily and there were many people with higher return rates than ETFs, but on the other hand, he "can't make any money and it's worse than ETFs." And he said that recently, the stock price has been rising in the night market, and he feels that there is a chance of reaching the 50,000-point mark. He also admitted frankly that after losing money last time and graduating, he was wondering whether to borrow money from his family.

After the article was exposed, there was a heated discussion. Some netizens believed that due to the recent increase in the number of market account openings and the continued strength of Taiwanese stocks, "50,000 points should be no problem." Others believed that 50,000 points "definitely have a chance." The only difference is when it will be reached. However, some netizens believe that such "chasing high" remarks may reflect the gradual warming of market sentiment, and remind that the Taiwan stock index has reached new highs, which does not mean that every stock can rise simultaneously.
As for the idea that the original PO had "graduated" and now wanted to "borrow money to enter the market", many netizens even shouted "no". Some people think that "exit with a stop loss at a low point and re-enter the market at a high point" is the problem; others bluntly say, "After graduation, you should not think too much and just watch others make money." "Because you are just gambling, and your financial safety cushion is not enough to survive the retracement."
Some netizens directly asked, since their stock selection performance is not as good as ETFs, "then why don't you buy ETFs?" Some even suggested "just buy 0050".

U.S. President Trump is trying to bring manufacturing back to the United States through tariffs, but TSMC has invested in a wafer factory in Arizona, while Taiwan's four major manufacturing giants Foxconn, Inventec, Wistron and Pegatron have deployed server production in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, forming a division of labor between high-end chips in the United States and servers in Mexico. Foreign media pointed out that decades of U.S.-Mexico supply chain integration have formed a deep economic logic, and tariff policies are difficult to change the existing industrial structure.
