Taipei
ONE year into Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen's rule, investors are tallying up their winnings.

Foreign funds in particular have been fans: they've pumped a net US$16.5 billion into Taiwan equities in the past 12 months, the most in the region, and helping send the currency to highs last seen in 2014.
