AKESO's stock plummeted 7.94% during intraday trading on Tuesday, marking a significant reversal in its recent performance.
The sharp decline comes as investors engaged in profit-taking following the stock's nearly 10% surge on the previous day, which was driven by positive clinical trial data for its core product ivonescimab presented at the ASCO conference. The selling pressure was further exacerbated by a large block trade of 250,000 shares worth approximately HKD 29 million executed during early trading hours. Additionally, the broader biotech sector experienced a pullback, contributing to the negative sentiment surrounding the stock.
