The Tai-Ex opened down 48-points this morning from yesterday's close, at
26,708 on turnover of $8.7-billion N-T.

Shares in Taiwan tumbled almost 700 points to close at the day's low Tuesday
as sell-off was triggered by heavy losses on the U.S. markets overnight amid
fears over the U.S. Federal Reserve's hawkish stance and stretched tech
stocks.

Contract chipmaker TSMC shed 2.77 percent to close at the day's low,
contributing about 320 points to the Taiex's fall.

Analysts say judging from yesterday's movement, many investors dumped their
stocks in panic to stop losses, so selling was seen across the board,
including nontech stocks.

The Central Weather Administration says, today's coldest temperature on the
main island of Taiwan clocked in at 12.4 degrees in New Taipei's Shimen.

They say, Taoyuan's Yangmei and Hsinchu's Guanxi registered similar
temperatures this morning.

Meanwhile, experts say that areas in the north and east as well as
mountainous regions (山區) can expect some rain as well.

They say, lowland areas can expect temperatures to get as low as 12-16
degrees today.

And tomorrow, experts say temperatures early in the morning will be around
the same for areas north of and including Miaoli...

while there will still be rain possible along the Keelung North Coast, and in
the northeast tomorrow.

Also starting tomorrow, experts say, we can expect a slight rise in
temperatures across the country.

And starting Friday and moving into the weekend, we can expect slightly
wetter conditions in the north and northeast.

US President Donald Trump has said Saudi Arabia's Crown PrinceMohammed bin
Salman "knew nothing" about the 2018 killing of Washington Post journalist
Jamal Khashoggi.

He made the comments during an Oval Office meeting with the Kingdom's de
facto ruler in stark (赤裸的，明顯的) contradiction (矛盾) to the finding of
US intelligence.

Nick Harper reports from Washington.

Firefighters are battling a fire that has burned through a neighborhood in
southwestern Japan and forced more than 170 people to evacuate.

It started Tuesday evening and was still out of control this morning.

Japan’s Fire and Disaster Management Agency said at least 170 homes have
been damaged and a man in his 70s was unaccounted for.

The fire started near a fishing port in the city of Oita during strong winds
and spread to a forest.

Oita is on the southern island of Kyushu.

Pope Leo XIV has strongly backed U.S. bishops who condemned the Trump
administration’s immigration crackdown.

He urged the American people to listen to them and treat migrants humanely
(善良地，人道地).

As he left his country house Tuesday evening, Leo was asked about the
“special message” the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops adopted during
their assembly last week.

The text criticized the Trump administration’s mass deportation of migrants
and the “vilification” (誹謗，詆毀) of them in the current migration
debate.

Leo has previously urged local bishops to take the lead on speaking out on
matters of social justice.

He said he appreciated the U.S. bishops statement and urged all people of
goodwill to listen to what they said.

The Tai-Ex opened down 137-points this morning from yesterday's close, at
27,310 on turnover of $7.7-billion N-T.

Shares in Taiwan ended slightly higher Monday after profit-taking eroded most
of the initial gains amid lingering concerns over stretched artificial
intelligence stocks at home and abroad.

Analysts say the market was initially led by the electronics sector as
investors took cues from a rebound enjoyed by tech stocks on the U.S. markets
on Friday.

But this strength was compromised by the end of the session as many investors
shifted to the sell side.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has approved the appointment of Andy Chen as
Taiwan's new ambassador to Palau.

Chen has been the director general of the ministry's Office of
Parliamentarian Affairs since February.

He will replace sitting ambassador Jessica Lee, who'll be returning to the
MOFA headquarters in Taipei.

Chen previously (先前) served as Taiwan's representative to Oman and head of
Taiwan's office in Vancouver, Brunei, and the Philippines.

He received his bachelor's degree in Arabic Language and Culture from
National Chengchi University.

In Bangladesh, former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been sentenced to
death by a special tribunal (特別法庭 ) that found her guilty of committing
crimes against humanity.

She was put on trial in absentia and was found guilty of overseeing a
crackdown on protesters last July.

According to a UN report 1400 people were killed during the demonstrations
last year, most by security forces firing live ammunition.

Hasina claims she's innocent.

Neha Poonia has more.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney won a vote on his budget in Parliament
that could have triggered (觸發) a possible election.

Carney’s Liberal government does not have enough votes to pass the budget on
its own but it passed 170-168 with the support of a Green Party member of
Parliament and some New Democrat abstentions.

The Liberals don’t have a majority of seats in the House of Commons and must
rely on an opposition party to pass legislation.

The budget vote is considered a vote of confidence in the minority Liberal
government.

Carney's Liberal Party scored a stunning comeback victory in an election last
April in a vote widely seen as a rebuke of U.S. President Donald Trump.

But the Liberals fell just short of winning an outright majority in
Parliament.

Britain's Royal Mint is celebrating Freddie Mercury with a new coin design.

The coin marks 40 years since his iconic Live Aid performance.

It features an image of the Queen front man midperformance, with a musical
stave (五線譜 ) representing his vocal range.

Mercury’s sister struck the first coin at the Royal Mint in Wales last week.

She said the coin captures his passion and joy.

The coins go on sale Tuesday.

Mercury died at age 45 in 1991, just one day after he publicly (公開地)
announced he was HIV positive.

That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _____.

The Tai-Ex opened up 203-points this morning from yesterday's close, at
27,601 on turnover of 10-billion N-T.

Shares in Taiwan shed more than 500 points Friday as a sell-off was sparked
by a plunge on U.S. markets overnight amid renewed worries that the U.S.
Federal Reserve has turned hawkish toward its rate-cut cycle.

Analysts say the steep losses in the United States prompted investors here to
pocket their recent significant gains, also taking cues from the heavy losses
suffered by artificial intelligence stocks such as Nvidia on stretched tech
stocks".

National Taiwan University is urging the public to be vigilant about
information they read online...

after an anonymous social media user promised to hand out free fried chicken
and boba tea.

A post in an anonymous Facebook group earlier this month claimed that Taipei
would announce school and work closures for Typhoon Fung-wong for at least
two days between November 12th and 14th...

promising to hand out free fried chicken and boba tea at NTU's Fu Bell if the
days off do not occur (發生).

Several hundred people lined up, with some getting there early in the
morning.

The university ultimately had to dispatch security guards to keep order near
the bell until afternoon, when people seemed to realize they had been
tricked.

NTU says, it's not able to verify who made the post, but warned that they
should consider the accuracy and impact of misinformation spead online, lest
they face legal consequences.

Finland's president urges Europe to hold its nerve (保持鎮定，保持勇氣) as he
warns no ceasefire likely soon in Ukraine.

AP correspondent Karen Chammas reports

Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa has announced the capture of one of
Ecuador’s most wanted drug traffickers.

Wilmer Chavarria, known as “Pipo,” was caught in Malaga, Spain, on Sunday
in a joint operation with Spanish police.

He is believed to lead Los Lobos, a group linked to political assassinations
(暗殺) and associated with Mexico’s Jalisco New Generation Cartel.

Chavarria faked his death in 2021, moved to Spain, and continued his criminal
activities.

His capture coincides with Ecuadorians voting on a referendum about allowing
foreign military bases to combat drug trafficking.

Poland's foreign minister says an auction of Holocaust artifacts in Germany
has been canceled.

He shared this information from his German counterpart after complaints from
Holocaust survivors.

The auction was set to include letters from concentration camp prisoners and
other documents.

A Holocaust survivors group had called for the cancellation, describing the
auction as cynical (損人利己的) and shameless.

The group emphasized that these documents belong to the victims' families and
should be in museums, not sold for profit.

The auction house has not responded to calls or emails about the
cancellation.
