Event Summary

On July 9, 2026, Taiwan's central bank governor Yang Chin-long warned parliament of an AI bubble risk, citing over-leveraged tech firms financing speculative capital expenditures. He stated that while AI growth is real, over-expansion via aggressive borrowing is concerning. The central bank's June meeting held rates steady, though not unanimously, as inflationary pressures were deemed insufficient for a hike. Taiwan, a key AI supply chain hub with TSMC, Nvidia, and Apple, has seen record stock highs. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's frequent visits underscore the island's importance. TSMC reported sustained high demand despite rising component costs.
