Movement Alert|BYD Company Falls 3.19% in Regular Trading, Auto Sector Retreats as Profit-Taking Weighs on Prior Gains

Market Focus07-17

On July 17, BYD Company fell 3.19% in regular trading, trading at HK$87.75/share, with turnover of HK$824 million. The decline came after the stock had accumulated gains exceeding 10% over the prior three trading days.

The pullback was driven by sector-wide profit-taking across automobile stocks. BYD had previously rallied on multiple catalysts including CLSA reaffirming its \"high conviction outperform\" rating with an H-share target price of HK$120, JPMorgan naming it a top pick for the second half, and the appointment of Hungary's former foreign minister to lead external relations and new business development. Today, holders locked in gains, triggering broad selling pressure across the sector.

Within the Automobile Manufacturers sector, stocks declined uniformly. Among individual names, XPENG-W fell 7.87%, Geely Auto fell 5.36%, Leapmotor fell 4.24%, Li Auto fell 3.21%, and Great Wall Motor fell 1.36%.
