The Taiwan stock market closed on Monday with a gain of 161.68 points, finishing at 20034.41 points, an increase of 0.81%.

At the peak of the early session, it rose over 200 points to 20073 points, then fluctuated around the 20,000 mark, hitting a low of 19983 points, presenting a mixed pattern of buyers and sellers.
