Market Focus10-27

On October 27, 3SBIO fell 5.03% in Regular Trading, trading at HK$13.2, with turnover of HK$120 million.

The most recent public information tied to the stock points to continued share repurchases, but sector-wide weakness in biotechnology names appears to be the more immediate backdrop for the move.

Company disclosures show 3SBIO repurchased 337,500 shares on October 14 for about HK$4.86 million at HK$14.40 per share, following buybacks of 800,000 shares on October 13 for about HK$11.65 million, 1.0 million shares on October 12 for about HK$14.8 million, and 2.5 million shares on October 9 for about HK$37.59 million. Even so, recent market data show broad pressure across biotech peers, including DUALITYBIO-B falling 28.07%, KEYMED BIO-B falling 12.72%, SKB BIO falling 4.83%, AKESO falling 3.57%, and INNOVENT BIO falling 1.81%.
