TSMC Token Jumped From $372 to $388 as Taiwan Stepped In
Tokenised TSMC fell to $372.24 on Sunday night, November 8, 2026, then jumped to $387.51 as Taiwan activated a NT$500 billion support fund and curbed short selling on Monday. Replay the rebound and its fade in hourly steps.
TSMC's US shares closed Friday, November 6, at $375.44, up 6.3% after Thursday's chip crash, and the tokenised version on Binance traded near $379 into Sunday evening. The Nvidia probe headlines then pulled it lower: the 20:00 UTC candle fell to $375.00 and the token slid to $372.24 by the 00:00 UTC hour on Monday.
Taiwan's market opened at 01:00 UTC with new support in place: the NT$500 billion National Financial Stabilization Fund was activated and the cap on intraday short sales cut to 3% of average volume from 30%. The 01:00 UTC candle rose from $376.38 to $381.51 and the 02:00 UTC candle reached $387.51, about 4% above the overnight low, as the Taiex climbed more than 5%.
The token did not hold the peak. The 03:00 UTC hour closed at $382.22 on 1,604 trades, the 04:00 UTC hour drew the replay's heaviest activity, with 3,963 trades, while the price eased to $381.82, and by 06:00 UTC it was back near $378.90, close to Sunday's level, even as the Taiex kept most of its gain.
Replay it to watch a policy rally in real time: how far the first hours of a support package carry a stock that trades in two time zones, and how quickly the 24-hour market measures the move against the US close.
