阮清華: Pullback After Gains Is a Normal Cycle

In response, National Stabilization Fund Executive Secretary and concurrent trader, Deputy Minister of Finance 阮清華, today attended the 25th anniversary celebration tea party of Taiwan Financial 聯成, and accepted media interviews after the event. He said the stock market inherently rises and falls; after rising too much there will be a pullback, and after pulling back to a certain extent it will go up again, which is a very normal cycle, as it is impossible to rise every day, nor to fall every day. He stressed that unless the economy or international situation encounters major problems, or major problems arise on the industry side, only then would slight attention be needed, and if there really are problems, then consider how to handle them.

Foreign Investor Adjustment Said to Not Rank Among Top

Regarding foreign investors again slashing Taiwan stocks by more than NT$100 billion, 阮清華 pointed out that this is not the first time, and compared with the past it does not even rank. Foreign investors have always conducted adjustments, and it is impossible to require foreign investors to keep buying; selling is also normal. He reiterated that current stock market rises and falls should be viewed as a normal cycle, unless major changes in the economy or international situation are confirmed, only then would there be a need for further attention.
