The "reciprocal tariff" policy introduced by U.S. President Trump has triggered significant fluctuations in global markets, with U.S. stocks plummeting by more than 1500 points over two consecutive days, greatly undermining investor confidence. As Taiwan's stock market reopens on the 7th after the Qingming holiday, expectations of selling pressure are mounting, and whether it will drop below 20,000 points has become the focus.

To maintain stability in the financial market, Executive Yuan Premier Zheng Rongtai convened an emergency meeting on the 5th to discuss whether the National Stabilization Fund should hold an early meeting to formulate response measures. Originally, the National Stabilization Fund was scheduled to hold a routine meeting on April 14, but due to the sudden international political and economic changes, it is reported that the fund is closely monitoring the market situation and does not rule out holding an interim meeting ahead of schedule to initiate market stabilization tasks.

To enhance market confidence, Zheng Rongtai invited the central bank governor, the Financial Supervisory Commission chairperson, and the Minister of Finance, among other relevant officials, to listen to potential response measures for fluctuations in the financial market. During the meeting, there was an in-depth analysis of Taiwan's financial structure and its linkage with international markets, as well as the overseas layout of Taiwanese businesses, while also discussing government support strategies for the overall industrial chain.

Although the meeting did not confirm whether the conditions for activating the National Stabilization Fund were directly discussed, there are expectations from the public that if chaos arises in the capital market, the National Stabilization Fund can convene an interim meeting at any time to make decisions.
