2 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 evidence does not firmly support a 20% market share for the stated early-2025 or early-2026 period. Yuanta appears to have been a leading margin lender, and older or self-published materials point to a historical share near one-fifth, but those sources are not time-specific. The more contemporaneous numbers cited are either venue-specific or likely based on a different metric, so the claim’s exact figure and timeframe are not established.
“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.
