East Buy's stock experienced a sharp decline of 5.84% during intraday trading on Monday, reflecting significant investor concern.
The sell-off appears to be driven by news that the company's former CEO, Sun Dongxu, alongside former key livestream anchors Shi Ming and Guo Tianquan, co-founded a new company called Beautiful Tomorrow (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd. The new venture's business scope overlaps with East Buy's core operations, including the wholesale and retail of fresh food and cosmetics, as well as performance brokerage and online cultural operations.
Market analysts fear this move could replicate a previous competitive split in the industry, leading to intensified talent drain and direct business competition for East Buy, which has heightened uncertainty around the company's future market position and growth prospects.
