HUA HONG GRACE's stock plummeted 5.96% in intraday trading on Friday, marking a sharp decline amid a broader market sell-off.
The drop was driven by a sector-wide correction across the semiconductor industry, with peers like SMIC, Montage Technology, Iluvatar CoreX, and Biren Technology also experiencing substantial losses. The prior catalysts that fueled the stock's recent rally, including the approval of its acquisition of Shanghai Huali Microelectronics and TSMC's reported price hikes on advanced process nodes, appear to have been fully priced in, triggering profit-taking after the stock had surged over 170% year-to-date to record highs above HK$200.
The broad-based selling pressure reflects investor caution as the semiconductor sector undergoes a pullback following a rapid multi-day advance, with traders locking in gains amid concerns about overvaluation and the exhaustion of positive news flow.
