The United States announced a 20% tariff on trade with Taiwan on the 1st, but the technology sector is waiting for the subsequent "Section 232" investigation report, as the potential additional semiconductor tax is the real determinant of whether to Cut Loss. (Background: The US imposes a 20% tariff on Taiwan, higher than Japan and South Korea! Lai Ching-te emphasizes that it is temporary, and the Taiwan stock market is under pressure with a downturn and analysis of negotiation prospects.) (Supplementary background: The US reaches into the overseas exchange: taxpayers must declare "overseas account encryption assets.") At the TSMC headquarters in Hsinchu, everyone in the board of directors of the five major electronics companies in the Neihu Technology Park in Taipei is holding their breath, waiting for a report coming from Washington, D.C. This report's content could trigger an earthquake that disrupts the global technology Supply Chain, with Taiwan being the epicenter. Why is the US initially announcing a 20% tariff on Taiwan, while the technology sector is waiting for "Section 223"? This clause, colloquially known as the semiconductor tax, originates from a law that has been in existence for sixty years.
