Goldman Sachs predicts that the AI-driven chip booms in South Korea and Taiwan will significantly increase their current-account surpluses, prompting potential interest rate hikes. They forecast two 25-basis point increases in South Korea and two 12.5-basis point hikes in Taiwan this year. The AI boom is expected to push South Korea's current account surplus above 10% of GDP and Taiwan's over 20%. Despite energy import challenges, the tech export surge is anticipated to dominate economic growth, with South Korea's GDP growth rebounding to 2.5% and Taiwan's accelerating to nearly 10%.

Taiwan's foreign exchange reserves rose to US$602.49 billion at the end of last month, up US$5.6 billion from the previous month. This increase was attributed to investment gains, currency valuation effects, and renewed foreign inflows, despite earlier volatility. The central bank noted that foreign investors made significant net purchases in Taiwanese equities, contributing to capital inflows. The New Taiwan dollar remained stable, and the central bank is prepared to intervene if necessary. In March, reserves had dropped to US$596.89 billion due to geopolitical tensions and capital outflows, but last month saw net inflows of about US$7 billion.

Taiwan's TAIEX index dropped 134 points (0.3%) to 40,051 in morning trading, as profit-taking followed a record high. The decline was driven by losses in electronic technology stocks and negative sentiment from Wall Street, amid inflation concerns due to rising oil prices. Despite the drop, the index remains above 40,000 after a 4.6% surge on Monday, led by semiconductor stocks. Notable losers included TSMC (-1.3%), Delta Electronics (-2.2%), and Unimicron Tech (-1.1%).
