Market Focus06-18

On June 18, Convergence Technology (01729.HK) declined 5.22% in regular trading, trading at HKD 19.21 per share, with turnover of HKD 147 million. The selloff comes after the stock previously rebounded to HKD 20.5, approaching the HKD 21.00 placement price, triggering concentrated selling by placees nearing their breakeven level.

Short selling data from June 17 showed a notable escalation in bearish activity, with short volume reaching 3.737 million shares valued at HKD 74.26 million, accounting for 14.05% of total daily turnover. The convergence of profit-taking from the prior rebound and placement-related unwinding has intensified near-term pullback pressure.

The company had completed two rounds of placements in the first half, raising over HKD 4.5 billion in net proceeds, with 50% earmarked for global business expansion. The current share price now trades approximately 8.5% below the HKD 21.00 placement price, widening the discount that had nearly closed during the recent rally.
