Datang Power (00991.HK) plummeted 5.08% intraday on Monday, reflecting a sharp correction as the stock faces multiple headwinds.
The decline is attributed to profit-taking pressure following a massive prior rally, where the company's A-share had surged over 101% earlier in May. Additionally, the stock remains under a severe abnormal fluctuation regulatory monitoring period set to end soon, prompting investor caution. The company has issued clarifications stating it has no operational computing-power synergy projects, dispelling speculative fervor that may have driven earlier gains.
Valuation concerns are also weighing on the stock, with its price-to-book ratio of approximately 3.7x significantly exceeding the power sector average of 1.87x, indicating substantial overvaluation and digestion pressure. The broader Independent Power Producers sector traded weak during the session, further contributing to the negative sentiment.
