Taiwan announces stock market stimulus package


TAIPEI (Reuters) - Taiwan's cabinet will take steps to prop up the ailing stock market, including encouraging insurance companies to invest more of their T$8 trillion ($263 billion) in assets in the market, local media reported on Sunday.

Newspapers detailed the steps in their Sunday editions following a late Saturday meeting where the cabinet discussed ways to shore up the market , which tumbled 3.4 percent on Friday to a five-month closing low.

Other steps the cabinet will take include encouraging major government funds to invest more in the market.

The drop in Taiwan's stock market has been part of a broad global selloff, but it has been particularly acute amid a flight of foreign money.

In the month of June alone, foreign funds have taken a net T$115 billion out of the Taiwan stock market, the biggest outflow for a single month since last November
