Core Viewpoint - Taiwan's export destination is shifting towards the United States, with the gap between exports to the US and exports to mainland China narrowing significantly from 3-4 times to just 0.1 percentage points [1][3]. Group 1: Export Growth - Taiwan's total export value from January to June increased by 25.9% year-on-year, reaching $283.2 billion [2]. - Exports to the US during the same period surged by 51.4%, amounting to $78.9 billion, accounting for 27.9% of total exports [1][2]. - In June alone, exports to the US saw a remarkable year-on-year growth of 90.9%, reaching $17.2 billion [3]. Group 2: Comparison with Mainland China - Exports to mainland China (including Hong Kong) grew by 12.7% year-on-year, totaling $79.1 billion [2]. - Despite the growth, the performance of certain sectors, such as plastics and rubber products, remained weak [2]. - The share of exports to the US in Taiwan's total exports has exceeded that to mainland China for two consecutive months, with the US accounting for 32.4% and mainland China for 27.3% [3]. Group 3: Structural Changes - Historically, mainland China was Taiwan's largest export destination, with exports to China accounting for around 40% of Taiwan's total exports from 2004 to 2022 [3]. - The current shift is attributed to high-tech companies relocating some production bases back to Taiwan and increasing direct exports to the US [3].
