Midday Pause: NT$32.167 With a 7.9-Point Gain

The New Taiwan Dollar (新台幣) paused at NT$32.167 against the US dollar at midday on the Taipei foreign exchange market on August 13, 2026, according to the Central News Agency (CNA). CNA reported the currency was up 7.9 points from the prior close at the time of the midday pause. The Commercial Times (CTEE), citing the same CNA report, republished an identical figure — NT$32.167 at midday — confirming the quote across both outlets.

From the Open to the Morning Range

CNA reported the New Taiwan Dollar opened at NT$32.22 against the US dollar on August 13, 2026. Within the morning session, CNA recorded a high of NT$32.161 and a low of NT$32.22. CTEE's report, also sourced from CNA, carried the same set of figures — an opening price of NT$32.22 and a morning range bounded by NT$32.161 and NT$32.22 — placing the midday pause of NT$32.167 inside that morning trading band.

Midday Turnover on the Taipei Forex Market

CNA reported that turnover in New Taiwan Dollar/US Dollar trading reached US$892 million by the midday pause on August 13, 2026. The same turnover figure appears in the quote carried by CTEE's report citing CNA, indicating consistent reporting of trading activity across both outlets for the session.

Session Figures at a Glance

What This Means

Taken together, the figures reported by CNA and republished by CTEE describe a single, consistent session snapshot: the New Taiwan Dollar opened at NT$32.22, traded within a morning band of NT$32.161 to NT$32.22, and paused at midday at NT$32.167 — a level that sits inside that morning range and represents a 7.9-point gain from the prior close. The US$892 million in turnover reported alongside the midday quote indicates the trading activity that accompanied this move, though neither CNA nor CTEE's reports carry data beyond the midday pause to indicate how the session concluded.
