FAQ
What is a sector index?
A price index compiled by TWSE for each industry, tracking the overall share-price movement of listed companies in that industry (dividends not reinvested). The returns on this page are calculated from index closes over each period.
How is the share of turnover calculated?
The latest trading day's turnover of all listed and OTC common stocks in an industry divided by the total across industries, showing where trading is concentrated.
Does a top ranking mean a sector deserves attention?
No. The ranking only describes past performance; it does not predict anything and is not advice about any sector or stock. A large short-term gain may come from a few heavyweight stocks, so read it together with each sector page's revenue and valuation.
