| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2330.TW | Taiwan's chip production is exposed to global critical-material supply-chain risk, but the immediate price direction is not directly stated | Watch1-4w | China's rare-earth measures still apply to products using specified Chinese-controlled technologies |
| SOXX | semiconductor supply-chain risk can affect broader chip sentiment, but the release does not specify a direct directional shock to semis | Watch1-4w | the controls affect foreign-made products containing Chinese rare-earth inputs |
| MP | diversification away from Chinese rare earths can benefit alternative suppliers | Up1-4w | the measures keep Chinese critical-material supply risk elevated |
