2 published verifications about Taiwan Taiwan ×
“Yuanta Securities Co., Ltd. had about a 20% share of Taiwan's margin-lending market in early 2025 or early 2026.”
The available evidence does not firmly establish that Yuanta held about 20% of Taiwan’s margin-lending market in early 2025 or early 2026. The main support is self-reported company material with unclear definitions, while cited market-wide sources do not clearly verify it and one contemporaneous outside figure puts the share closer to 17% in 1H25. That makes the claim plausible but overstated as presented.
“Taiwan's internet connectivity to the rest of the world has been fully severed as of May 2026.”
Evidence shows Taiwan continued to operate multiple international submarine cables and backup links in May 2026; only a single regional cable break was confirmed. Reputable government and media sources explicitly reject claims of a total external internet blackout. Therefore, the assertion that Taiwan’s global connectivity was fully severed is unsupported.
