On October 26, LAOPU GOLD fell 5.13% in regular trading, trading at HK$269.8, with turnover of HK$64.20 million.
The move coincided with broad weakness in Hong Kong gold-related names after spot gold traded near US$3,997 per ounce in Asia and briefly dropped to US$3,975.70, the first break below US$4,000 since mid-July, pressuring sector sentiment.
Company-specific pressure also remained in focus. Recent market updates said an investment bank downgraded LAOPU GOLD to hold and cut its target price by 39% to HK$322.9, citing a weaker-than-expected third-quarter recovery, sales still tied to gold price swings, and softer earnings visibility. Reports also noted the company had launched its first iterative price cut, adding caution around margin and profit recovery.
