The Tai-Ex opened up 64-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 32,381

on turnover of $8.5--billion N-T.

With contract chipmaker Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing regaining its

footing and rebounding from a session earlier, shares in Taiwan closed at

another record high Tuesday.

The buying in TSMC shares spread to other semiconductor stocks, with

investors betting that orders for more mature chip processes would shift, as

TSMC cuts that capacity (生產能力) in favor of more advanced chip

manufacturing.

The Civil Aeronautics Administration says that cancellation fees for domestic

offshore flights during holiday periods will be raised to up to 30% of the

ticket price.

The new tiered (分層的) fee system will take effect in March, and be applied

for the first time on the Labor Day long weekend.

Under current rules, domestic offshore tickets sold for holidays for three

days or more carry restrictions (限制)…

such as "valid only for the booked flight" or "expired if unused" with

cancellation fees capped at 10% if refunds are requested before departure.

But under the new rules, cancellation fees will vary based on how close the

refund request is to the flight's departure time.

Officials say, the changes are intended to curb seat hoarding (囤積) during

peak travel periods…

as some passengers book multiple flights and cancel later.

Spain will grant legal status to potentially hundreds of thousands of

immigrants living and working in the country without authorization.

Spain's migration minister says the government plans to amend immigration

laws by expedited (加急的) decree, offering legal residency and work permits

for up to one year.

This applies to those who arrived before Dec. 31, 2025, and have lived in

Spain for at least five months without a criminal record.

The minister says the measure could benefit an estimated 500-thousand people.

Many are from countries in Latin America and Africa and work in agriculture,

tourism or service jobs, backbones of Spain’s booming economy.

Social media giant TikTok has settled a lawsuit claiming the platform

deliberately addicts and harms children.

However, Meta and YouTube are still facing similar claims as a landmark

(具有重大意義的，標誌性的) trial gets underway in Los Angeles.

Ira Spitzer reports.

and finally…..

Paul Thomas Anderson’s politically charged action thriller “One Battle

After Another” leads the race for the British Academy Film Awards, with 14

nominations including acting nods for five of its cast.

Ryan Coogler’s blues-steeped vampire epic “Sinners” is close behind with

13 nominations, while Chloe Zhao’s Shakespearean tragedy “Hamnet” and Josh

Safdie’s ping-pong odyssey (漫長而驚險的旅程) “Marty Supreme” have 11

apiece.

The winners will be announced at a Feb. 22 ceremony in London.

The U.K. prizes — officially called the EE BAFTA Film Awards — often

provide clues about who will triumph at Hollywood’s Academy Awards.

That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _____.
