The Taiwan Carbon Exchange was inaugurated last year and officially launched carbon credit trading this year, enabling companies to reduce emissions through the transfer and trading of carbon credits, thereby promoting domestic carbon reduction. Carbon credits, carbon fees, and carbon taxes are all carbon pricing tools; carbon credits allow companies to trade emissions quotas, while carbon fees and taxes are charged based on emissions volume. Taiwan's carbon credit market is currently focused on voluntary transactions. Key beneficiary stocks include companies in carbon offset forestry, green energy production, carbon capture, and carbon auditing. As the world advances toward net-zero emissions, these related industries are expected to see growth opportunities.

Silicon Photonics is an emerging technology that combines optical and semiconductor technologies, utilizing optical signals instead of electrical signals to achieve high-performance, low-power data transmission. Its applications span co-packaged optics (CPO), IT and telecommunications, data centers, sensors, AR/VR, and biotech and medical fields, positioning it as a potential key driver for AI, ultra-fast networking, and quantum computing. TSMC and ASE have also led the formation of the "Silicon Photonics Alliance," bringing together major players in optical communication and packaging industries to further promote technological development and enhance Taiwan's semiconductor industry competitiveness.
Nvidia's 1-for-10 stock split attracted market attention by making the stock more accessible to a broader range of investors. A stock split is a way to restructure a company's shares, adjusting the price per share while altering the total number of shares without changing the company's total market capitalization. Stock splits can be either forward or reverse. Forward splits reduce the share price, increase liquidity, and attract more investors, and reverse splits works vice versa. Although a stock split does not affect the company's intrinsic value, it can influence market psychology and investor behavior.

ROA and ROE are indicators, as they help assess a company’s long-term investment value. ROA (Return on Assets) reflects how efficiently a company uses its assets, showing how well the business converts assets into profits over a specific period. ROE (Return on Equity) measures a company’s ability to generate returns for shareholders, indicating how efficiently the company uses shareholders' capital to make profits. Both ROA and ROE are useful for comparing companies within the same industry, revealing management capability and long-term trend shifts.

A narrow-based security index refers to an index dominated by a small number of constituent stocks, leading to a higher concentration. According to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), an index is considered narrow-based if it meets any of the following criteria: it has fewer than 9 constituent stocks, a single stock accounts for more than 30%, or the top 5 stocks together exceed 60% of the total index weight. In contrast, a broad-based index has a larger number of constituents and covers a wider market scope. Recently, due to the rise in TSMC's stock price, the Taiwan Stock Exchange Weighted Index (TAIEX) has been reclassified as a narrow-based index, drawing significant market attention.
As temperatures rise, Taiwan's power supply issues have become a hot topic. In response, Taiwan Power Company (Taipower) introduced the "Power Grid Resilience Construction Plan" in 2022, driving increased demand in the heavy electrical industry. This sector encompasses three key areas: power generation, transmission, and distribution. From high-voltage cables to smart grids and smart meters, these components play vital roles in ensuring a stable power supply. In recent years, the development of renewable energy and the construction of smart grids have benefited related companies, leading to impressive market performance. The heavy electrical industry holds significant growth potential as power demand and energy transitions continue to evolve.
Electric vehicle (EV) concept stocks have garnered significant market attention, particularly Taiwan's suppliers in the upper and midstream sectors of the industry chain. From battery materials and components to vehicle production, Taiwanese companies play a crucial role in the EV supply chain. Upstream includes motors, vehicle bodies, and battery-related materials, while midstream covers energy and powertrain systems. Downstream EV manufacturers focus on the production of electric buses and passenger vehicles.
