  • TSMC Propels Taiwan Past India in Stock Market Value Amid AI Boom
    May 25, 2026, 9:54 PM EDT. Taiwan's stock market value surged to $4.95 trillion, surpassing India's $4.92 trillion, driven by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC), the world's largest chipmaker. TSMC, accounting for 42% of Taiwan's benchmark index, saw a 49% share rally this year fueled by its dominant role in artificial intelligence (AI) semiconductor supply. Taiwan's rise to the fifth-largest global equity market reflects its tech hardware concentration, benefiting from AI investments. Regulatory changes allowing larger fund holdings in TSMC may attract over $6 billion inflows. In contrast, Indian stocks fell amid foreign outflows, high energy costs, and weaker corporate earnings, despite India's faster-growing $4.15 trillion economy. India's market is down 8% this year, losing weight in emerging market indices, as investors favor AI-driven markets like Taiwan and Korea.
