What's more, banks have discovered that the trade surplus has continued to grow. There was US $ 2.5 billion in the first quarter of this year alone --but most of it was not remitted to Taiwan. When one adds that capital outflow was as high as US $ 1.1 billion for the quarter, it is obvious that this wave of mainland fever is bringing capital across the strait at several times the previous rate.
此外，央行也發現，今年貿易出超持續擴大，光是第一季就有廿五億美元，但大部分的錢卻沒有匯回台灣；加上資本流出高達十一億美元，顯見今年這波大陸熱，正以倍數成長的方式，將台資搬運至對岸。
